Advanced A66 Road Closure message:

"A66 Northern Trans-Pennine Project Team
National Highways | Major Projects

Advanced Works – May 2026

We’re continuing with advanced works, and we’ll soon be extending the current speed limit area in place and installing average speed cameras on the A66 between M6 junction 40 and Temple Sowerby. We’re bringing forward this installation in response to customer concerns over the existing 40mph speed limit not being adhered to by all drivers.

To install the cameras safely, we will need to close the A66, both east and westbound carriageways overnight (12midnight-5am) between Kemplay roundabout and Temple Sowerby from 5-9 May 2026 inclusive (five nights).

Also on Friday 8 May 2026, we will need to close one lane of the A66 westbound carriageway only (8pm-5am) between Kemplay roundabout to M6 J40.

Emergency access will be retained throughout the closure but for all other traffic there will a fully signed diversion in place, and details are available here.

Due to the existing HGV restrictions through Kirkby Stephen, the diversion for HGVs will involve using the M6, A69, and A1. From the M6 Junction 40 A1 Scotch Corner, this is a 185 km diversion, so signage will be in place before these points to ensure we inform HGV drivers in a timely manner. "

We'll be improving the A66 between the M6 at Penrith and A1(M) at Scotch Corner. We propose to upgrade single carriageway sections of road to dual carriageway and improve the junctions along the route
