Environment Minister concerned over more car journeys
The closure of two bank branches could have adverse effects on the environment, according to Geoffrey Boot.
The Environment Minister was commenting after it was announced Isle of Man Bank buildings in Castletown and Peel will be shutting their doors for good in January.
Branches remain open in Douglas, Ramsey and Port Erin.
Mr Boot says it will lead to more car journeys as a result:
NSC pool out of action until the New Year
Cracked pipe needs to be fixed and 'water safely recirculated and tested'
Main route through Foxdale closed due to RTC
Emergency services are on the scene
Michelle Mone-linked PPE firm liquidated and unlikely to repay £148m
Judge Sebastian Prentis placed the company into liquidation
Yellow weather warning for coastal overtopping
Water and debris likely to impact coastal routes around high tide
