It’s been a busy weekend due to high winds, heavy rainfall and other incidents.
There are currently three road closures in place - Long Lane, near Newport where a BT pole was knocked down in a traffic accident, and at Southford Lane, Whitwell and Morton Common, Brading, both due to flooding.
Flood warning signs – indicating the road is passable to most vehicles with care – were put in place at Warlands Lane, near Shalfleet; Carpenters Road, Brading; Alverstone Road, East Cowes, Briddlesford Road, Wootton; Fairlea Road, Newport, and Ryde Esplanade.
In addition, safety barriers have been put out on Ryde Esplanade following a road traffic incident and at Eastcliff Road, Shankin and Church Road, Binstead, following the collapse of private walls.
A low-hanging branch also had to be removed from the highway at Newport Road, Apse Heath.
An Island Roads spokesperson said:
“The conditions remain challenging so please take additional care wherever you are on the network.”
