There’s a warning repair work could mean part of a popular Kendal car park will be closed for up to 10 weeks.
A routine annual inspection highlighted an issue with the concrete ramp between levels 1 and 2 of Westmorland Shopping Centre car park which has led to closure while specialist repairs are carried out.
A spokesman for Westmorland and Furness Council, which operates the car park, said: “We recognise that the closure will cause some disruption to car park users, especially those who regularly park in the affected areas, and we apologise for any inconvenience caused.
“However, only a small part of the car park is impacted and the rest of the car park is open as usual. We hope people understand that this closure and remedial work is required to ensure the safety of all car park users.’’
The affected ramp and area of the car park has its own separate barrier close to the main entrance and therefore the rest of the car park is unaffected and open as usual.
