A ROAD has been rendered impassable in South Cumbria.

The B5277 is blocked by an HGV and both sides of the road are can not be traveled.

Cumbria Police's armed response and roads unit said on Twitter: "Efforts are being made to get it moved but it might be some time."

The problem is at Hazelwood Court, between Lindal and Grange-over-Sands, not far away from Grange Golf Club.

UPDATE: The road is now re-opened.
