Plan your route: temporary traffic lights at Ballacraine during TT banner installation
If you're travelling through St Johns today, be prepared for a short delay. The Department of Infrastructure has announced temporary traffic lights at the busy Ballacraine junction on the TT course, as contractors work to prepare the Island for one of the world's most famous motorcycle racing events.
The temporary traffic lights will be in place from 9.30am until 3.30pm on Thursday, 14 May. Contractors are installing banners across the TT course as part of the countdown to this year's festival. While the disruption is brief, visitors and residents planning to travel through the west of the Island should allow extra time for their journeys during this period.
With TT fever building across the Island, now is an excellent time to plan your visit or ensure you know the best routes around any temporary infrastructure changes. The annual racing festival brings thousands of spectators to the Isle of Man, and the preparation phase — like today's banner installation — is a tangible reminder that race week is drawing near.
For the latest traffic updates and travel information during TT season, keep an eye on official announcements from the Department of Infrastructure and local news sources.
