Non-Believer Posted March 29, 2022 Share Posted March 29, 2022 (edited) Oddly enough; strange, bright mauve/pink-coloured, long panels of surfacing have now appeared on the Sulby-bound climb out of Kerroomoar (reverse TT course direction) just before the crest of the hill. There's been lane closure and traffic lights there all day. The material looks like some sort of resin laid on the Ralumac surface, almost like wet, pink cement. Another DOI experiment?

The colour can't be a million miles away from that used on the infamous Celtic Crossing at St. John's? Maybe they had some left over and are determined to use it somewhere 😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
