Email service disruption
The issues affecting email messages sent to Cumberland Council have now been resolved, and we are receiving emails as normal.
Lorries and heavy goods vehicles (HGVs)
Submit notice to move an abnormal load over 40 tonnes, HGV routes, HGV weight limits and HGV timber transport routes.
Submit notice to move a vehicle over 40t, an axle load of more than 10t on a single non driving axle and 11.5t for a single driving axle.
If you plan to move an abnormal load weighing 40 tonnes or more, you need to let us know the route in advance. We will check the proposed route against our records to make sure that the load can be accommodated.
It is your responsibility to survey the proposed route and make sure it is suitable before submitting a notice. If the route is not suitable, you will need to propose an alternative route.
You can plot your route at Electronic Service Delivery for Abnormal Loads (ESDAL) on GOV.UK.
