The Department of Infrastructure is relying on quick fix solutions in the short term to deal with the major damage left by yesterday's storm surge.
A number of sea wall sections were demolished by the waves in Castletown, Douglas and Ramsey.
The damage has left a huge crater in the Ramsey Promenade walkway which it is feared could undermine the road.
Over 200 tones of rock armour has been poured into the hole until a more permanent solution can be found.
Operations manager Alan Hardinge says the damage is the culmination of weeks of severe weather:
Two more schemes backed by government fund
Island to get Bikesafe scheme for first time
Jurby Junk's Stella dies aged 90
No plans to publish UK's assisted dying letters
Burst water main disrupts Onchan supply
Government advice following spike in data breaches
Plans for four-foot flood walls at Ramsey harbour
Garage blaze in the early hours of this morning
