Overseas contractor advises on flood risk

Four areas of Onchan at risk of flooding

An overseas contractor may need to be hired to help deal with flooding issues in Onchan.

Four areas of the village have been told they'll have to deal with the risk of flooding for at least another winter.

The areas involved are Laurel Avenue, Ashley Park, Kaighen's Lane and Hackett's Close.

Manx Utilities Chairman Dr Alex Allinson says he's working closely with a number of bodies to resolve the problem.
