Ventnorians and those visiting the blessed town, don’t forget that the High St in Shanklin is now closed in both directions between the traffic lights at the top of the hill and Eastcliff Road. Diversions are in place.
Southern Gas Networks are digging the road up as they’re replacing the gas main.
Guess there’s lots to be done as the works will be running until the Friday 28 November – and then again between Monday, 5 January and approx Thursday, 9 April 2009!
It looks like the areas affected will be moving over the period, so we’ve been in touch with their press office to try and lock down the details. Updates when we get them.
