A5 one-way system from tomorrow

A section of a key highway in the south of the Island will go to a one-way system from tomorrow.

From Noon on Friday (September 13) the A5 between Fisher's Hill and Kentraugh Mill Road, in Gansey, will only allow traffic in a westernly direction towards Port Erin until Saturday, September 28.

It's whilst the Department of Infrastructure is finishing resurfacing work in the area aimed at improving the ride quality and lifespan of the stretch.

A diversion for northbound traffic will be in place via the (A7) Ballagawne Road, through Colby and towards the Ballabeg junction - bus services in the areas will also be altered with details on those to be issued in due course.

Details of the work and advice for road users is available on the Department of Infrastructure Facebook page.
