£1.1 million in the pot for residential roads this year

The infrastructure minister told the House of Keys this week it means her department has to prioritise which roads get attention.
It follows concerns about why resurfacing work in a housing estate in Colby isn’t being fully completed.
Michelle Haywood told her political colleagues roads are prioritised using a matrix system – but Ramsey MHK Lawrie Hooper said he found that troubling:
