Twice recently I have seen letters from Island Roads saying things had been done when they had not. I am now wondering whether their records are being falsified or if they are incapable of holding up their hands and saying sorry.
I am becoming more and more disillusioned by Island Roads who are not a good advert for the IOW Council and the Island in general.

The trouble is that without evidence, the letters and comments on whether signs were in place or not are just that, letters & comments. If local people or Island Roads want to show that they are “right” then some evidence of the existence or non-existence of signs in a particular place at a particular time is required. Otherwise this and future discussions on this subject will just… Read more »

I would be interested to know how one might provide documentary evidence of the “non-existence of signs in a particular place at a particular time”. :-))

I live on Lake Hill and drove home Tuesday evening via Bembridge, Yaverland, High Street Sandown and Beachfield road. There were no diversion signs anywhere. (which was a first, as they are normally absolutely everywhere on the island!) The first sign I saw was the road closed sign at the Heights. Island Roads were clearly misinformed by the staff that should have put out the diversion signs.… Read more »

Hang on a minute! If you drove through/passed a “Road Closed” sign then the road was closed! Just because the workmen weren’t there, it is still closed. Wasn’t that what all the fuss was about during the recent floods, drivers just ignoring “Road Closed” signs

Actually on the first occasion it was a day after the road should have been reopened and I was visiting someone in Nettlestone just before the actual roadworks ‘were’ and guess what – the roadworks had finished but the signs remained. The other was the road crossing at princelett shute junction, which for weeks had a road ahead closed sign with no indication of where, but I… Read more »

Are you the sort of person that touches a door clearly labelled “Wet Paint” to see if the paint is really wet? Just because the painter has gone home doesn’t mean the paint has dried.

I think a few people are missing the point! Yesterday (Thurs) evening approx 5.20pm, after driving from Ryde to Shanklin, I arrived at the traffic lights just before the heights. There was clearly a sign showing ROAD CLOSED, as all the other drivers were continuing down Lake hill I did the same (the road was not closed). So the point is, if the road was actually closed… Read more »

You were warned in advance. Signs have been out for over a week before the work stating what would be closed and when it would be closed. Diversion and closure signs should be up, and should be positioned correctly, not obstructing traffic as one was this morning, set halfway across the carriage way. However, the road closure has been advertised, and locals should know all about it… Read more »

Absolute rubbish! Island roads are at fault, I was also unfortunately stuck in the chaos at Whippingham road today, going to and returning from east Cowes. No warning, tailbacks caused because a few road lights had to be done. As for the advertisement, many of the people I saw in the tailback had SO/EC tickets hanging from their rear view mirrors. That means they have come for… Read more »

No, NOT rubbish at all. Warning signs are placed before the roadworks. I have seen them in Shanklin, Ryde, AND on Lake Hill last week. They give details of when and how long the road will be closed for. Details are also published in the County Press, on Island Roads website, twitter account, AND on On The Wight. If you cannot plan to avoid roadworks given all… Read more »

Really! so all the people that got confused this week were to blame? It was all the drivers fault and nothing to do with IR. If I chose to visit a part of the island I may check the travel updates to make my journey easier. However as I drive a taxi I cannot know exactly what roads are open or shut and what times! and when… Read more »
