Cumberland Council roadworks schedule 2026

Overview

The county’s coordinated maintenance programme continues through August 2026. After the May short‑term repair on Rydal Drive and the June closure of Elterwater Avenue, July saw gas‑escape excavation on Outrigg Road (9‑15 July) and lane closures at the C1042/U3047 junction at Holmwrangle (22‑24 July). United Utilities Water lifted a manhole lid on Tarn Road (30 July) and installed a water meter and boundary box at Briar Bank (21‑23 July). A month‑long diversion on John Street, Carlisle (3‑28 August) and a programme on Market Square (27 July‑7 August) were flagged with very long delays. The council also announced a leak repair on Mason Street, Workington (1‑5 August). New immediate works by United Utilities Water are scheduled for 4‑6 August on Field Lane in the Grange and St James Road in Carlisle, involving open‑cut excavations and expected long traffic delays. Motorists are repeatedly advised to use alternate routes throughout the county’s roadworks schedule.
