The city council has sketched plans to develop a £50m campus for the University of Cumbria, intended to catalyse the wider regeneration of the historic Citadels district.

A strategy to redevelop parts of the Cumbrian town have been unveiled, including the conversion of the former Whittles furniture store building on Duke Street into a technology hub, and bringing forward several sites for housing.

Congleton-based developer Gladman has submitted plans for a housing development at Rookery Park in Scotby, a village to the east of Carlisle. 

The planning application for the £85m Eden Project North in Morecambe is now likely to appear at the end of this year or early 2021, after its delivery company initially targeted a submission this spring.

Contractor Eric Wright Group has lifted into place the £5m bridge to replace the 250-year old stone crossing that washed away during Storm Desmond in 2015. 

The club has adapted plans for a new pavilion so that the building also includes an archaeology centre, after the project stalled due to the discovery of Roman ruins. 

Preston-based contractor Eric Wright Group has restarted work to build a replacement bridge across the River Eamont in Cumbria, following a month-long break due to the pandemic. 

The Penrith-based housebuilder has secured permission to build 55 homes at Rheda Park in Frizington near the Lake District National Park.

A regeneration strategy for the Cumbrian town earmarks 11 areas for redevelopment, including the Station Gateway, Blackhall Road and Gooseholme Park, to help secure its long-term future.
