The Commodore of Peel’s Sailing and Cruising Club says dredging the Western harbour will bring massive economic benefits to the Island.
Yesterday, work to clear the harbour of potentially contaminated silt got underway, with the Department of Infrastructure dumping the material in special ponds it’s prepared at Poortown.
But the work sparked anger amongst residents after a number of spills on roads along the route.
Stuart Blackley Commodore of Peel Sailing and Cruising Club says there are obvious financial reasons for carrying out the work:
Douglas Council seeks permission for building compound on Ballanard Road playing field
DoI has 'really big' issues to address at Island's airport
Ramsey MHK Alex Allinson won't be seeking re-election
No injuries in light aircraft accident at Ronaldsway
