Other Info:
The track was originally cinder. It was upgraded to synthetic by British Nuclear Fuels (whose main site Sellafield is just outside Whitehaven) and opened on 22 Jul 1989 and they also funded its running cost for five years. In 2005 the track was refurbished and it is currently managed by the Cumbria Academy of Sport on behalf of the local council.
