Cumberland Council will begin essential pre‑surface dressing patching works on the C4026 between Hardingill and Whitecroft, Gosforth, starting Monday 19 January.
These works form part of the council’s ongoing commitment to maintaining and improving the local highway network.
To ensure the safety of both the workforce and the public, the works will be carried out under a full road closure, with a signed diversion route in operation throughout the duration of the scheme.
The works are expected to take six days, subject to weather and on‑site conditions.
Access arrangements:
- No on‑street parking will be permitted within the working area during operational hours (7.30am – 4.30pm, Monday to Friday).
- Resident and business access will be maintained where possible. On‑site marshals will assist and advise as works progress.
- Emergency services, pedestrians, and dismounted cyclists will have access at all times.
