New white lines to be painted on the A684
Cumbria County Council is informing residents, businesses and tourists of plans to refresh the white lines on the A684, as part of the Safer Roads Project.
The works are planned for ten days and will commence on Monday 28 November, and is scheduled to be completed on Friday 9 December, weather dependent. Work will be carried out Monday to Friday, from 8am to 5pm.
Works will be taking place along the carriageways on:
- A684 Long Lane to Garsdale Head Sedbergh
- Scotch Jeans Killington
- A684 Shacklabank Lane to Station Road Sedbergh
To enable the works to be carried out safely and to help minimise traffic disruption there will be a traffic management system in place, for each segment of the improvements.
The county council has asked people to contact the Highways Hotline on 0300 303 2992, if they have any questions or queries.
Cumbria County Council would like to thank the community for their continued support and patience while the highway network is improved. The county council apologies for any inconvenience caused by these improvements.
Councillor Keith Little, Cumbria County Council Cabinet Member for Highways and Transport, said:
"We would like to thank the community and businesses for their continued support, while we improve the road network, and make it safer for everyone.
“These new white lines will be a significant improvement to the A684 and are part of the overall Safer Roads Project.
“We understand that these work plans may cause some disruptions which we do apologise for this, but we will ensure that the road network flows as best it can.”
