Continuing the Maughold bus service as it is can no longer be justified, according to the Island's director of public transport.
Ian Longworth has been responding to criticism from Maughold Commissioners, who're annoyed there was no public consultation before the decision was made.
Mr Longworth says a public consultation starts now, now that the proposed changes have been announced.
He says what's planned for Maughold has worked elsewhere on the Island:
£150,000 spent supporting Ukrainians
273 approvals were issued for people fleeing war
Fire crews respond to structure fire in Braddan
Residents advised to test smoke and fire detections systems regularly
Manx Care offering RSV vaccine
Eligible people will be invited for their appointment
