A six week scheme to improve traffic flow and safety at Quarterbridge in Douglas is under way today (Monday).
Repairs and improvements at the junction will include localised widening of the road, resurfacing and the creation of a pedestrian crossing point.

The layout of the junction will remain essentially the same and the work will continue until at least mid March.
