Cumberland Council is informing residents and businesses that there will be resurfacing works, on the B6263 in Wetheral.
The resurfacing work comprises of a carriageway inlay project which will enhance the road's durability and quality. This involves reshaping the road to improve drainage, replacing ironwork for future maintenance accessibility, and renewing line markings throughout.
The resurfacing works are scheduled to commence on Monday 6 November 2023 for 15 days, until Friday 24 November, weather permitting. The works will be carried out in two phases:
Phase 1: Bowling Green to Eden Mount
Phase 2: Wheatsheaf Inn to Wetheral Community Hall - with temporary 30mph signs
To enable the council to complete works safely there will be a full road closure during each phase, with a signed diversion route in place.
The resurfacing works will be carried out under a daytime road closure from approximately 8am to 5pm, daily. The road will be accessible outside of these hours if it is considered safe.
Cumberland Council wishes to thank the community for their continued support and patience while improvements are made to the road network and apologises for any inconvenience.
