A main road between Sandown and Brading has reopened, for the second time, following flooding on the Isle of Wight.

Drivers are once again able to drive along Morton Common.

Island Roads said water has receded around the Eastern Yar, meaning the route is passable, with care.

The road was first closed, after torrential rain and rising river levels, next to the road, hit more than two weeks ago.

It had been reopened but was forced to close for a second time, earlier this week, following more heavy downpours.

 

Although flooding has receded, flood warning signs are still out as some surface water remains. 

Island Roads said: "Please continue to take care wherever you are on the network."
