Claims that thousands of unhealthy trees line Manx roads
Government needs a strategy to manage the thousands of unhealthy trees lining the Island's roads.
That's the call from an arboriculturalist who believes lack of management over ash dieback disease is putting motorists at risk.
Andrew Igoea, from tree management company Manx Roots, wants to see the Department of Infrastructure work with landowners to encourage them to remove dying trees before they fall.
He says it's about keeping road users safe:
Planning application for onshore wind farm still being developed
Motorcyclist suffered fatal chest injuries in crash
Trial for trio accused of producing Class A drugs to Island
Too early for 'direct action' over cost-of-living concerns says chief minister
