Laxey flood protection scheme to go on display

Flood protection plans for Laxey will go on display next month.

They can be viewed on 21st October at the Working Men's Institute.

The multi-million pound project was announced in 2019 after a river burst its banks, leaving dozens of properties submerged under water.

It is thought the plans will include a debris catcher in the watercourse and improved drainage.

An Isle of Man flood report has identified Laxey as one of 11 places on the island at high risk.

The drop-in session next month will give residents the chance to catch up on progress, and a presentation is scheduled for 18:00.
