Infrastructure Minister David Cretney says money will be spent on roads around the Island as and when they need repairing.
Yesterday (Tuesday) in Tynwald, he asked the court for permission to spend just over £4 million on strategic repairs, Ramsey Swingbridge and Douglas Promenade.
During each debate, he faced questions about other areas and roads that needed work.
Mr Cretney said cash would be spent on other schemes, but the money needed to be prioritised:
Peel Road closed to traffic coming out of Douglas
It's due to a road traffic collision near the Brown Bobby
Preston man banned from the Island for five years
Mohammed Enayet convicted for breaching immigration laws
Commissioner can't investigate health complaint
Not all internal avenues have been exhaustedÂ
Still a 'huge stigma' preventing men opening up about mental health
Calls for more investment to prevent people reaching crisis point
