MHK to query public transport running costs

Onchan MHK Rob Callister wants to know more about the Islands bus, railway and tram networks this week.

In the next House of Keys session tomorrow he'll ask what the costs were of running Bus Vannin buses; electric, steam and Snaefell railways and horse tram services each year since 2012.

He also wants to know how many passengers were carried on those networks each year during the same time period.

His queries for written reply - to be put to Infrastructure Minister, Ray Harmer MHK - will be put forward in the latest Keys sitting taking place tomorrow in Douglas from 10am.
