2014 is set to be the year Douglas sees the biggest improvements made in recent memory.
Works were ongoing throughout last year on the outskirts of the main shopping area - however this year will see Douglas town centre rejuvenated.
2013 also saw the start of the promenade improvement scheme, which will continue throughout the year.
