MOTORISTS are reminded that Quarterbridge is closed all day today.
After consultation with the Met Office yesterday the Department of Infrastructure closed the junction at 6am this morning. It will remain closed until midnight on Sunday.
Staff from the Department of Infrastructure are completing the new road surface and will be installing pedestrian refuge islands and signs. Road markings will also be applied.
Pedestrian access will be maintained throughout the closure and diversion and warning signs have been erected on the main roads and junctions leading to Quarterbridge to advise motorists to take an alternative route.
Traffic signals at Pulrose Bridge and Groves Road have been altered to assist with traffic flow and Saddle Road has become a clearway from its junction with New Castletown Road to Vicarage Road.
The Department of Infrastructure has apologised for any inconvenience caused.
