DOI unable to clear the route
Police say the Mountain Road will remain closed overnight.
It's despite the efforts by the Department of Infrastructure to clear ice and snow from the route.
There's a yellow weather warning in place for tonight with temperatures expected to fall below zero this evening, leading to frost and patchy ice to form in areas.
