It does not, however, constitute a definitive statement as to the status of any particular highway. • This is not a comprehensive list of the entire highway network in Cumbria although the majority of streets are included for information purposes. • The extent of the highway maintainable at public expense is not available on the list and can only be determined through the search process. • The List of Streets is a live record and is constantly being amended and updated. We update and republish it every 3 months. • Like many rural authorities, where some highways have no name at all, we usually record our information using a road numbering reference system. Street descriptors will be added to the list during the updating process along with any other missing information. • The list does not contain Recorded Public Rights of Way as shown on Cumbria County Council’s 1976 Definitive Map, nor does it contain streets that are privately maintained. • The list is property of Cumbria County Council and is only available to the public for viewing purposes and must not be copied or distributed.

The Clerk said that he had been in contact and that he had been assured that the work would be done. 6) Maintenance and Matters of Report a) Drainage on the green: A written report was received from John Thompson. He was monitoring the water coming from the tank under the pound. There had been heavy rain over the last few months so it was difficult to assess the success of the new pipe. There was standing water under the trees and the middle of the green was very damp. More soil to raise the level might help. JT b) Seating area at the top of the hill: The transfer has been completed. The seat and the wall would be combined and Joe Marrs would revise his estimate. It was hoped the work would be completed by the end of the financial year.

  • Flood Recovery - Roads and Bridges Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ’S) Version 9
    Flood Recovery - Roads and Bridges Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ’s) Version 9. Updated 10th February 2010 Temporary Road Bridge Q: When will there be a temporary road bridge in place between North and South Workington? A: Cumbria County Council has a targeted date for the temporary road bridge to be completed and open to traffic by 28 May 2010. Rugby-based engineering firm Morgan Est will be building the bridge and will employ a ‘hit the ground’ running approach to ensure the bridge is open by the target date. Q: Why will it take until the end of May 2010 for the bridge to be open? A: The construction of a bridge in these circumstances is a complex exercise which requires a wide range of activities to be completed. We have to ensure the temporary road bridge is designed and robust enough to deal with the expected levels of traffic. This means that we have to select a site suitable for the weight of the bridge and traffic. Pre-flood the Northside and Workington (Calva) bridges were dealing with some 37,000 vehicle journeys per day. We have been working on this project since the floods first hit – planning the best place to put the bridge, drawing up potential designs, surveying the geography of the area, working up traffic management plans and going through the tender and procurement process. The works programme is being kept as short as possible by carrying out different elements of the project concurrently so that the bridge and its foundations are built at the same time as the approach roads.

I.—ON THE PHYSICAL HISTORY OF THE ENGLISH LAKE DISTEICT. WITH NOTES ON THE POSSIBLE SUBDIVISIONS OP THE SKIDDAW SLATES. By the Eev. J. CLIFTON WARD, F.G.S., F.R.M.S. (PLATE II.) Introduction.—In previous papers upon the Geology of the English Lake District, which I have had the honour of laying before the Geological Society, special considerations of theoretic significance have been dwelt upon, and in the official memoir upon the Geology of the northern part of the English Lake District, detailed facts have been brought forward and a sketch given (in chap, xii.) of the original relation of the formations to each other, and their physical history. I yet venture to think, however, that there is need of a general summary of the facts relating to Physical History which may reach a wider circle of readers than do the official memoirs, and which may stimulate further inquiries into this deeply-interesting subject. The following pages may therefore be regarded as a sequel to my former papers on the district, and in some measure as a last chapter to the story told thus far.1 AGE OF THE DISTRICT. Our first inquiry is naturally—What is the age of this small mountain district of Cumbria ? Do Scafell, Helvellyn, and Skiddaw stand up as modern products of the world's evolution, or are they very ancient monuments, bearing many hieroglyphics written by the finger of time ? First then, if we sum up the rocky volumes at our disposal, we find the following geological formations represented :— (d) Carboniferous and Basement Conglomerate.
