THE Mountain Road has now reopened after being closed for 90 minutes this afternoon to allow snow clearance.
An update received from the Department of Infrastructure at 4pm today outlined the current situation.
A substantial amount of snow has been removed from the Mountain Road at the Sulby Glen junction in order to improve visibility.
The Sulby Glen Road, from its junction with the Mountain Road to Tholt-e-Will is open but is narrow in places and drivers are urged to drive with caution.
The Mount Murray Back Road, West Baldwin Road from its junction with Ard Whallin to its junction with the Beinn-y-Phott, and the Roundtable road to the Ballamodha junction are now all open.
The following roads remain closed but the DoI is hopeful they will all be reopened tomorrow (Friday):
A27 from its junction with the Ballacallin to Roundtable (access remains in place for residents but it is a no through road).
A36 to its junction with B44 Linague (access to properties, no through road).
A27 Roundtable to Ronague access to properties (no through road).
B10 Beinn-y-Phott.
The Department of Infrastructure thanked the travelling public, particularly residents in the affected areas, for their patience.
