Plan ahead: essential infrastructure work closes key road for two weeks
If you're planning a trip to Castletown or travelling through this historic corner of the Isle of Man, take note—the Old Castletown Road will be closed from Monday, 9 March through Wednesday, 25 March for essential infrastructure work. Manx Utilities will be carrying out vital refurbishment of the White Hoe Wastewater Pumping Station, along with replacing a manhole cover and resurfacing the road surface.
While the upgrades are necessary to maintain the island's utilities and transport networks, visitors and locals should expect travel disruptions during this period. Signed diversion routes will be in place to guide traffic around the closure, so it's worth checking directions before you travel. Additional diversions will be introduced on Sunday, 15 March, so keep an eye on local announcements for the latest updates.
Plan your Castletown visit accordingly, and allow extra travel time if you're heading to this picturesque area during the closure period. For the most up-to-date information on diversions and road status, follow official Isle of Man travel announcements.
