Call for different options in Liverpool
Island passenger group TravelWatch says its members remain very concerned about proposals to move the Steam Packet's Liverpool Pier Head landing stage.
The government has been in talks with port authorities and Liverpool council over moving the Manx ferry operation a mile further away from the city centre, to Waterloo dock.
The move - to allow Liverpool to expand its cruise ship business - was discussed at a TravelWatch meeting last week.
The group's chairman Brendan O'Friel says members are also worried about the cost of building a new stage - which would be passed on to travellers.
He says different options should be explored:
Review of income thresholds for public sector housing
Firearms officers deployed to incident near Laxey
A step into the modern era for social security
Attempted burglary in Ramsey sparks appeal
Two Manx high schools told to stop operating CCTV 'inside' toilets
Port St Mary Commissioners discuss civic amenity site changes
