Douglas Promenade: Are the crossings safe?

Pedestrian crossings on Douglas promenade will come under the spotlight today.

When the House of Keys sits this morning, Arbory, Castletown and Malew MHK Jason Moorhouse will quiz Infrastructure Minister Tim Crookall.

In a question for oral answer, he'll ask what advice has been given to road users about the uncontrolled crossings.

Specifically, he wants to know what the department has told drivers, pedestrians and cyclists about them.

Ina recent social media post, Mr Moorhouse said: "I have had to brake sharply whilst approaching one of the uncontrolled informal crossings on Douglas Promenade, which can be very difficult to see when it is dark and wet".
