Motion passed in House of Keys
A road in Port Erin will be permanently closed to allow a 72 bed care home to be built.
Bradda Close runs through the plot where planning permission for the new facility has been given.
Both Rushen MHKs voted against the order which was passed in the House of Keys.
The president used his casting vote in favour of the closure after Legislative Council was split on the issue.
Speaker of the House of Keys Juan Watterson challenged Arbory, Castletown and Malew MHK Jason Moorhouse on the motion:
Police 'actively looking' for drink and drug drivers this Christmas
Fine for man who had to be restrained by five hospital porters
Today's Manxman sailings delayed
MHK questions if reduction in NSC hours goes against Island Plan
