Cumberland Council will be carrying out essential carriageway improvement works on the C1035 route between Faugh and How starting Monday 24 November. 

The works are scheduled to last for ten working days, subject to weather and site conditions.

The two phases of work are:

  • Phase 1: From Monday 24 November to Friday 28 November at Faugh to How.
  • Phase 2: From Monday 1 December to Friday 5 December at Cairn Bank Junction to Warrenhill Junction. 
     

Working hours:

•    Monday to Friday, 8.00am – 4.00pm


A signed diversion route will be in place throughout the duration of the works.

Access for emergency service vehicles, pedestrians, and dismounted cyclists will be maintained at all times. Waste collection and school bus services will continue as normal.
