Calls to scrap 20mph plans at public drop-in session

Residents voice frustration over cost and lack of consultation

Members of the public who attended a public drop-in on the proposed 20mph zones are calling on the infrastructure minister to shelve the current plans and go back to the drawing board.

The scheme looks to implement the limit in residential areas around the Island, and has been approved by Tynwald twice.

The session saw a strong turnout, with many attendees raising concerns about the scale of the proposals.

Here’s what a few of them told Manx Radio:

Another session is taking place this Wednesday at the Sea Terminal in Douglas, from 3.30pm to 7pm.
