Castletown hotspot could be closed to traffic all year

Residents are being asked to give their views on a popular Southern area's closure to traffic all year round.

A public notice was published by the Department of Infrastructure, saying that Market Square in Castletown has proposals for it to be closed to vehicles to 'allow a pedestrian-friendly environment.'

The square remains closed to traffic until the end of October following the summer holidays.

Residents who have any objections are asked to contact the Highways Services Division before Friday October 18, or by emailing enquiries@gov.im
