Beaper Shute, otherwise known as the Brading Road, will be getting a refurb early next year.
There’s been quite a few horrible crashes down that section of road, including fatal accidents.
While the road is being resurfaced, it will also receive some safety treatments, such as anti-skid; the reduction in the speed limit to 50 mph; highly reflective cats eyes; and high viz signs on the bends.
It’s expected that the work will start on 4 Jan 2010, lasting ten weeks, with the closure of some sections during that time.
