‘Drive to the Conditions’

Motorists are being urged to take extra care this morning (Monday) following reports of black ice on several of the island’s roads.

Police are at the scene of a single-vehicle collision at the top of the Ballamodha Straight this morning.

Elsewhere, officers are attending Foxdale Road near to the Braaid Roundabout to reports of a crash. The road is blocked.

A spokesperson said: ‘The roads in places do have icy Patches.

‘Please allow more time for your journey and drive to the conditions.’

Residents have also reported patches of black ice in other parts of the island, with some warning that untreated roads are particularly slippery.
