Stagecoach Cumbria & North Lancashire’s Carlisle depot suffered flooding yesterday evening. Staff have worked around the clock and parked vehicles in Carlisle City Centre to protect them from the flooding. In atrocious circumstances staff were able to keep the vehicles away from the flood water and this morning are doing their hardest to restore services in flood hit areas as roads are re-opened.
