CUMBRIANS were unable to contact the county council for more than a day after phone lines went down.
The issue, which was first reported at about lunchtime on Wednesday, was confirmed to be fixed by Thursday afternoon.
BT engineers worked for several hours to get the lines back up and running.
A spokesman from Cumbria County Council said: “Our phone lines are working, the issue is now resolved.”
