The new 3.9-mile St Austell link road which opened six months ago but is still subject to temporary 30mph speed limits has been labelled a “joke”.<br />Cllr Steve Trevelyan, a Reform UK Cornwall councillor who represents Roche and Bugle in the Clay Country, said the A391 project should have been finished properly before it was opened.<br />He is angry that 30mph speed limits have been in force on the route since it was opened in May between the old A30 near Victoria and the Singlerose Roundabout at Stenalees.<br />Cllr Trevelyan said many drivers are still going through local villages because this is seen as quicker.<br />He told the Voice: “To be honest the majority of people would have rather waited for the road to be finished properly and in good time than the joke we have been presented with."<br />
