Temporary traffic lights will be installed on a Lake District road as contractors carry out essential slope repair work.
Work is due to start today Monday, February 23 on phase two of the repairs on the the B5289 near Ashness Bridge, Keswick.
The work is needed are required to stabilise the road and improve long‑term safety.
The slope was originally damaged during Storm Desmond.
Phase two is expected to take around 10 days to complete.
Workers will be on site from 7.30am to 5pm, Monday to Friday, subject to weather and site conditions.
Cumberland Council said progress made during phase one of the scheme meant that overnight road closures planned as part of phase two were no longer needed.
It had also received feedback from residents and businesses that the closures would impact them.
The phase will now be managed under temporary traffic lights.
Contractor Metcalfes Plant Hire will use smaller machinery to work from both the shoreline and the road to rebuild the slope.
Work will involve filling holes at the base of the slope using a combination of stone from the shoreline and imported material.
