Views wanted on pedestrianisation in Castletown

The commissioners closed the square over summer

Castletown Commissioners are looking for residents and business owners views on the closure of Market Square.

The local authority made the decision to close the square to cars during the summer which was met with mixed responses from local businesses.

They have also confirmed they are looking into making the pedestrianisation a year round scheme rather than a seasonal closure.

As part of the closure events, games and deckchairs were available for the public to use.

Local democracy reporter Emma Draper spoke to Chair of the Commissioners Jamie Horton:

Feedback should be sent to clerk@castletown.gov.im and it should be submitted no later than Monday 3 January 2023.
