Mountain Road set for temporary closure as TT infrastructure is cleared up
If you're planning to travel across the Island's iconic Mountain Road this week, it's worth knowing about a brief closure that's taking place. The Department of Infrastructure has announced that the road will be shut until midday on Tuesday, June 16, as workers remove temporary traffic management signs that were installed for the TT races.
The two-way traffic reminder signs were put in place to guide visitors and residents after the one-way system was taken down following the TT event. Now that the racing fortnight is behind us, these signs are being removed as part of the post-TT cleanup operation. The closure affects the stretch of road between Barrule Park in Ramsey and Creg Ny Baa—one of the Island's most scenic and historically significant routes.
If you're heading north or planning a scenic drive during this time, consider using alternative routes. The closure is expected to be brief, with works scheduled to finish by midday. This is just part of the Island's post-TT recovery, as infrastructure teams work to restore roads to their normal operation.
