Heavy rain this morning (Tuesday) left large amounts of standing water on many of the island's roads.

The Department of Infrastructure shut the Mountain Road between Barrule Park and Hillberry (Cronk Ny Mona) this morning, reopening it just after 3.30pm.

Many other roads had large amounts of standing waters, a DoI spokesperson adding: 'The Department is currently receiving a high volume of telephone calls regarding some motorists not driving to the conditions.

'As you are all aware there is a lot of standing water due to the sheer volume of rainfall and this is not likely to subside until after high tide, which is 1.15pm today.'

Isle of Man Transport has said its Bus Vannin services have been impacted by the weather, with many delayed because of road conditions.

Police gave the following update on roads at 10am:

Glen Darragh Road, Glen Vine - CURRENTLY CLOSED

Strang Road, Douglas, - Passable with care

Mount Rule - Passable with care

Greeba, near nurseries - Passable with care
