Early road closures for MGP

With only three weeks to go until the Manx Grand Prix, there's a reminder about the early road closures on Saturday, August 20 and 27.

They are scheduled to shut at 5pm on both days and will re-open no later than 9pm.

Chairman of the Club Bill Bennett says: 'We want to thank the Island’s residents for their positive response to the club’s request for a road closure to accommodate the additional practice time required for the enlarged field.

'This year sees an increase in the overall number of competitors, as well as a greater number of newcomers taking to the Mountain Course for the first time.'
