Lord Street and Market Hill set for revamp
Major work reconstructing Market Hill and a section of Lord Street in Douglas will get underway on Monday (2 September).
The Department of Infrastructure is hoping the revamp will make the area safer for pedestrians, as well as improving the access from the high street to North Quay.
The scheme was initially set to begin in June, before being pushed back.
Construction Manager Gary Saunders told Chris Cave why it was delayed, and how residents would be impacted:
Working hard 'no longer enough to afford to buy a home'
Treasury writes off £340,000 in benefits overpayments in three years
Manxman to return to service following repairs
Discussions ongoing over meningitis B vaccine rollout
