A Borrowdale bridge which was closed following a bus crash has reopened ahead of schedule.

The Grade One listed bridge at Grange, near Keswick, was damaged earlier in the month following an accident involving a Stagecoach bus.

Repairs were expected to take until Saturday but finished earlier than expected, last night.

A county council spokesman said: "The guys worked around the clock to get the bridge open and up to the standards of Natural England."
