Hawthorne Avenue in Ulverston is set to undergo a temporary closure starting June 2nd. This closure will extend for approximately 80 metres from its junction with Cherrytree Avenue. The purpose of this closure is to facilitate necessary utility works, as mandated by Westmorland and Furness Council.
The closure is expected to last for two days. However, it will only be enforced when appropriate signage is displayed. During this time, drivers will need to find alternative routes to navigate the area.
Alternative Routes for Drivers
Drivers are advised to use alternative pathways during the closure. The recommended route includes Cherrytree Avenue, Rowan Avenue, and the unrestricted section of Hawthorne Avenue. This diversion is essential to ensure that traffic continues to flow smoothly while the works are carried out.
Pedestrian Access
Despite the road closure, Westmorland and Furness Council has confirmed that a path for pedestrians and dismounted cyclists will remain accessible. This decision aims to minimise inconvenience for local residents and ensure safety for those on foot or using bicycles.
