Residents and businesses 'have had enough' - Christian
The former leader of Douglas Borough Council says refurbishment of the walkway on Loch Promenade should be prioritised over plans to extend the horse tram to the Sea Terminal.
Ex-councillor David Christian told Manx Radio he supported the minister of the Department of Infrastructure's current goal to get work already underway finished.
He said businesses and residents along the prom had had enough, and had tolerated disruption caused by the works for considerable time.
He also says plans to take the horse tram the whole length of the prom posed a risk to children disembarking from vehicles:
