More about Cumberland Arena
The running track in Crewe was built in 1980 with 7 lanes all round and partly relaid around 1990, but by the late 1990s it had become very tatty and needed resurfacing. It closed on 3rd August 2001 for a complete overhaul, which included dropping to 6 lanes with an 8 lane straight, and reopened in June 2002. The original synthetic track went by the Cumberland Athletics Track at Cumberland Sports Ground, but since reopening the name has been Cumberland Arena. Future plans include raising the infield to track level, and grant applications have gone in for better floodlights, track and field equipment and storage areas.
