A ROAD is currently shut for urgent maintenance repairs to be carried out.

A section of Kennel Cottage, Rusland near Ulverston is currently closed whilst Network Plus carry out urgent works to repair a leaking stop tap.

The road is closed from 200 metres from the Kennel Cottage junction with Corker Lane.

It is set to reopen to the public on Monday after a five day closure.

Cumbria County Council said a way for pedestrians and dismounted cyclists will be maintained at all times.
