Cost effective solution required
Finding a working solution to the ongoing horse tram situation is vital to the Island's diverse economy.
That's according to David Cretney MLC, Tynwald's member with the responsibility for tourism.
He was one of those present at a crisis meeting on Wednesday (27th), after the announcement Douglas Council would scrap the 140-year-old service last week.
Mr. Cretney said finding a cost-effective solution would do the Island favours:
Steam Packet wanted to be 'certain' before issuing statement, says MD
Manxman to be out of service until late September
Onchan Commissioner denies assaulting member of public
David Quirk claims he acted in 'self-protection' following verbal abuse
Tourists praise 'unique' horse tramway
Manx Heritage Transport Festival gets underway
Manxman won't return to service until end of September
Steam Packet says the situation is hugely disappointing
