THE A592 by Ullswater is blocked in both directions due to fallen tree near Glenridding.
The road is shut between the Cherry Holme Hotel in Glenridding and the A5091 at Park Brow in Matterdale.
It is unknown as to how long the road will be closed for.
Cumbria County Council have been contacted for comment.
