Call for work to start without delay
A form of compromise - but a good one.
That's how MHK Chris Robertshaw has described his amendment to plans for Douglas promenade.
The trams will now run the entire length of the promenade - but with just a single line from the war memorial to the Sea Terminal.
Mr Robertshaw's amendment was supported in Tynwald yesterday by 17 votes to 14 in a combined vote.
Speaking on Mandate (18 Jan) he said government now needs to get on with the work:
Airport reopens and ferry sailings resume following storm disruption
Off-Island travel ground to a halt on Saturday
MHK questions whether public have been ignored in relation to Sea Services Agreement
Thomas says call for evidence hasn't been completed as ordered by Tynwald
