It appears several people have driven directly over the new Ballasalla bypass roundabout, instead of driving around it.

A vehicle has left a visible track in the dirt in the centre of the new Ballasalla roundabout, which was installed recently.

Police said on Twitter this week that this has happened several times.

‘We clearly have at least one driver who can’t use the new roundabout in Ballasalla and may need their ability to drive assessing,’ the social media post said.

The roundabout is barely raised (surrounded only by a very low kerb), and is yet to be grassed over or surfaced in any way.
