Cumberland Council is set to carry out carriageway resurfacing works on Willow Holme Road in Carlisle.
The works will take place on the Willow Holme Road, starting on Monday 11 May 2026 and are expected to last for 10 working days, subject to weather conditions and site requirements.
To ensure the safety of both the workforce and the public, the works will be carried out under night-time road closures. Working hours will be 8pm to 3am each night, with the road remaining closed until 5am to allow for site clean-up and material curing.
During the closure period:
- Access will be maintained for emergency service vehicles
- Pedestrians and dismounted cyclists will still be able to pass through the area
The resurfacing is part of Cumberland Council’s ongoing programme of highway maintenance, helping to keep the road network safe and in good condition for residents, businesses and visitors.
Residents and businesses are encouraged to plan their journeys accordingly while the works are taking place.
