Train services between Workington and Carlisle have been cancelled for more than a week due to urgent repairs. 

Northern Rail confirmed on March 1 that train services running through these stations will be cancelled or terminated at and started back from Workington.

Flimby, Maryport, Aspatria, Wigton, Dalston and Carlisle will not be served, and disruption is expected to last until 11.59pm on March 9. 

Services between Workington and Carlisle are currently being disrupted due to urgent repairs to a bridge.

Network Rail staff are in the process of examining the bridge and a further update will be provided in the near future.

This will also affect trains between Barrow and Carlisle both ways, but trains from Barrow to Lancaster are not affected. 

Alternative travel provision and replacement road transport are yet to be announced.
