Road Closed Signs Must be Adhered to Say Police

Tuesday, 29 December 2009 00:00

The police would like to reiterate to road users that any marked road closures must be adhered too.

With the recent wintry weather conditions playing havoc on the Island’s roads, and with more forecast for the coming week the mountain road especially has been treacherous to cross.

Despite road closed signs the police have still seen incidents of people trying to drive it, at great risk to themselves and any passengers.

Anyone caught driving on a closed road risks prosecution and a hefty fine.
