Revellers urged to plan ahead and stay safe
Police officers will be visible in the Island's towns and villages and on the roads tonight, as new year's eve celebrations get into full swing (31 Dec).

Policing plans for major public events and holidays from the TT to the Christmas period are drawn-up 12 months in advance.
Inspector Derek Flint says the strategy will see resources deployed where experience suggests they will be in most demand:
