 The Manx Motor Cycle Club (MMCC) resigned on 27 September 2007 as organiser of the TT races after contractual difficulties and problems with 2007 Isle of Man TT races, a shortage of marshals at the 2007 Manx Grand Prix and the cancellation of the subsequent 2007 Senior Manx Grand Prix.During October 2007 the Isle of Man Department of Transport began road widening and creation of a roundabout at Braddan Bridge on the Isle of Man TT Mountain Course.After the MMCC had anticipated a renegotiation of the terms of the contract with the Isle of Man Department of Tourism and Leisure to organise the 2008 TT races, they were surprised to discover that the contract was awarded to ACU Events Ltd, a subsidiary of the Auto-Cycle Union (ACU).
