Information boards at the IW Council’s St Mary’s roundabout scheme have been changed to highlight health advice as we approach the holiday weekend.

The message ‘Stay home, Essential travel only, Save lives’ is being used to highlight the need for people to observe the restrictions in place and to safeguard the NHS during this time, in line with Government advice.
