Mountain Road One Way on Sunday
|
The Mountain Road will be one way from Ramsey hairpin
to Cronk-ny-Mona on Sunday, the scheduled date for Mad
Sunday, transport bosses have revealed.
All traffic on Snaefell will have to travel in the
direction of the TT course from 10am to 8pm.
Director of highways Bruce Hannay said: 'We will be
looking for the police to implement various measures
and more patrols.'
The Mountain Road is a clearway during the TT
fortnight, with riders only allowed to stop at the
Bungalow, Verandah and Creg-ny-Baa.
Mr Hannay added: 'Traffic should take care and travel
at an appropriate speed and motorcyclists should ride
within their capability.'
Transport Minister Tony Brown made the decision to
make the road one way, despite the reduced number of
visitors as a result of the cancellation of the races,
after consulting with the police, Department of
Tourism and his highways department.
