Construction and garden centres returning today

From today, the Island's construction sector and garden centres can re-open.

The change comes as the Isle of Man starts to relax some Covid-19 restrictions as part of a gradual easing of the circuit-break lockdown.

For construction work, outdoor work can resume as long as social distancing and face coverings are used and for work indoors on empty properties, the limit will be one person per room again with the same safety measures in place.

Meanwhile, garden centres can welcome back customers but distancing and hygiene measures will be in place with face coverings strongly recommended which retailers may insist on.
