A new video has been released, filmed by divers who've been carrying out essential repairs to the foundation of Kendal's Victoria Bridge.
The work on the bed of the River Kent involves placing 'grout bags' under the damaged bridge pier to provide support for the bridge above, with the aim of re-opening it to traffic as soon as possible.
Cumbria County Council says although good progress has already been made, heavy rain has caused river levels to rise - making it unsafe for divers to work at the moment.
It means the opening date has been pushed back into next week, with no specific opening day yet planned.
Nick Raymond, Senior Manager - Network Management, said: "It's deeply frustrating that factors outside of our control have hampered the speed of the repair.
"The divers have been doing a great job, but as river levels rise the speed of water flow increases and the visibility in the water drops, making it unsafe for us to work in the water. We can't give a definite date yet when we'll be able to open the bridge for traffic, but as soon as we can we'll let people know."
Only yesterday (Monday), Cumbria County Council said it wouldn't re-open until this coming weekend at the earliest, having been closed for safety reasons since the 13th of January.
The repair work is needed after damage was discovered caused by fast flowing water caused by last month's floods.
