Removal of dead animals from roads

Carlisle City Council’s Area Maintenance teams will remove dead animals killed, or found on the public highway or verges apart from the motorway and the A69.

Out of normal working hours and for emergency removal, Cumbria County Council will remove dead animals from all roads with a speed limit of over 40mph and all main highway roads through Carlisle and rural villages.

Roadlink will remove all animals from the A69 and the highway Agency will remove animals from the motorway.

Dead domestic pets are not removed from households as part of this service.
