Bikers getting off the ferry for Manx Grand Prix will be greeted by a new road surface this month.
Contractor Thotech International has resurfaced the linkspan at Victoria Pier in Douglas.
On LinkedIn, the company says it's put down 750 square metres of special heavy-duty anti-skid road deck.
In its post it says the new surface means the span is now ready for the increase in traffic for this year's festival.
