Motorists warned of delays during resurfacing fix

Motorists have been warned of delays as resurfacing works on a main route connecting the west of the Isle of Man with its capital are redone.

Temporary traffic lights will be in place on the A1 Peel Road at Braddan Church Roundabout after the morning rush, with the aim the work being completed.

The Department for Infrastructure (DOI) the carriageway on Saddle Road, opposite the church, would also be repaired while the traffic lights were in place.

The refurbishment of a 70m (230ft) section of the road, carried out last week, did not "meet resurfacing standards", the department previously said.

The DOI has urged motorists entering or exiting Saddle Road to consider using the New Castletown Road.
