Drivers are continuing to face delays on the A66 as two sets of roadworks take place between West Cumbria and Penrith.

Highways England began work to replace a damaged parapet at Stoneybeck Bridge near Bridgefoot on Saturday, March 23.

Temporary traffic lights are in place around the clock, with drivers experiencing lengthy delays at busy periods.

The work is due to conclude with an overnight road closure on April 17.

Meanwhile, roadworks continue on the A66 just east of Crosthwaite roundabout at Keswick.
