This section of the website is designed to help those people who drive in or through Cumbria.
There is some basic advice for driving in the forthcoming winter conditions and a copy of our leaflet describing the road gritting sequence is available for download. Car parking information is available through the links to district authority websites. Major local travel news affecting roads around the county can be viewed via the link to the BBC website.
A major road safety campaign in Cumbria was launched earlier this year. Using the banner 'It Wouldn't Kill You', the Safer Roads for Cumbria partnership is promoting its better driver scheme. See the link for details.
