Residents on the Island will be able to make non-essential journeys from today.
The Manx Government has moved into the next phase of its response to coronavirus.
The new approach will move the emphasis from Stay Home to Stay Safe, where more activity will be permitted while observing social distancing.
The measures will allow those who perform jobs which can be done alone or with strict social distancing in place, and are therefore regarded as low risk, to resume activity.
This will include gardeners, painters and decorators, tradespeople and many in the construction industry. Supporting services such as waste and recycling points will also be able to operate provided they can do so safely while respecting social distancing guidelines.
Isle of Man Constabulary are reminding motorists that all-Island 40mph speed limit remains in force.
