Motorsport can be dangerous, and the Manx Motor Cycle Club are concerned for the well-being of all competitors, marshals and spectators around the TT course and continually review the safety arrangements. As part of this ongoing review a number of new prohibited areas have been created for the 2007 Manx Grand Prix and some existing prohibited areas have been extended. These are clearly marked around the course and if people go into these areas it could cause a practice or race to be stopped.

One of these new areas is at Ballaspur, which is between Ballacraine and Ballig Bridge. Additional signage is to be provided at Tynwald Woollen Mills and the approach roads to notify people before they trek up only to be turned back, but it would be a big help if you could let any of your friends who normally spectate in this area know that this is no longer allowed.
