Roadworks in preparation for Isle of Man TT Races

Thu, 26 Jan 2023

TT organisers have identified several sections of the Mountain Road that require improvement prior to the running of the 2023 Isle of Man TT. This work and other maintenance activities will take place during April.

The work includes:

Resurfacing between Ramsey Waterworks and below the Gooseneck
Resurfacing and drainage repairs at Windy Corner
Reconstruction of collapsed drainage culverts across the carriageway at the 32nd Milestone, and surface repairs
Annual preparatory works ahead of the TT Races, such as installing marshal stations, painting, erecting signage, etc.
A range of regular maintenance tasks

The work will be undertaken in two phases.

Phase 1: Road closure Ramsey to the Bungalow, Monday 3 April to Saturday 8 April. The road between the Bungalow to Creg-ny-Baa will remain open, along with the Tholt-e-Will Road junction. This closure is to enable the resurfacing of the section below the Gooseneck. While it is planned for the road to open ahead of Good Friday (April 7), this is weather dependent and cannot be guaranteed.

Phase 2: Full Mountain Road closure Ramsey to Creg-ny-Baa, Tuesday 11 April to Friday 28 April. Tholt-e-Will Road junction will remain open to enable access to the Snaefell Mountain Railway, Snaefell Café and Victory Café. The closure may be extended until Friday 5 May in the event of delays due to poor weather or other unforeseen issues.
