Tricky driving conditions on Island roads

Two high routes closed so far

Overnight hail is causing tricky driving conditions on Manx roads.

The Mountain Road and Creg-ny-Baa back road remain closed this morning - the latter having a layer of sheet ice on it, according the police.

Officers say do not use the back road, as there are vehicles abandoned on the road which cannot be recovered at this time, such is the severity of the road conditions there.

You're urged to allow extra time for your journeys this morning, and to drive to the conditions.
