How many accidents have occurred on a section of Old Castletown Road in the past five years?

Arbory, Castletown and Malew MHK Jason Moorhouse wants a break down of how many have been fatal, serious or slight on the section between Kewaigue Hill and the Blackboards.

Additionally, he also wants to know the same figures about Cooil Roundabout and Ballasalla.

He will put his query to Home Affairs Minister, Bill Malarkey, for written response at the next sitting of the House of Keys on Tuesday, October 30, at 10am.
