‘Living streets’ project seeks public views

Thursday, 27 April 2023 07:23

The government is seeking views on a project to make the Island's streets easy and safe to move around.

The 'living streets' measures aims to improve air quality and pedestrian access, promote alternative travel options and create a 'great place to live.'

The first area of the Island for consideration is in central Douglas, including Ballakermeen High School and Hawarden Avenue.

The consultation asks the public if the measures would be useful to improve access and safety.

You can give your thoughts here before Monday June 12.
