DOI to paint new road markings on busy Ramsey Road in hopes of easing traffic problems

There's hope for residents of a road in Ramsey that's blighted by motorhome and van parking, according to the Department of Infrastructure.

The DoI says it'll be painting new road markings on Old River Road to cut down on the number of large vehicles parking there and causing traffic problems.

The work will begin next Monday and last until July 21 at the latest - the department says all vehicles will need to be moved while it's carried out.

The project will see double-yellow lines on the harbour side the road, with passing places for traffic.
