Bad weather has delayed the completion of the works & re-opening of the road. No current estimate of re-opening date.
Couple of comments today from people who live at the end of the road:
"Were meant to be finished Wednesday but delayed by bad weather. Were still working there yesterday. Road yesterday was treacherous and lots of tourists stuck and had to be rescued, the council somehow managing to send a gritter for them but not been around for locals who actually pay council tax etc."
"Still ongoing and will probably be extended now due to tourists deciding to sneak past the pretty clear 'road closed' sign yesterday. Funnily enough they got stuck. This of course necessitated the pretty much immediate despatch of a gritter whilst elsewhere on the island an ambulance on call had to rely on locals to pull it out of a ditch.."
(Note: the gritter did NOT then continue to the end of the road where people live.)
Please, anybody that's thinking of visiting just now, DON'T.
