Ramsey shopping area to have facelift

Wednesday, 9 October 2013 00:00

Regeneration work will start on Ramsey’s main shopping street next week.

The latest phase of work will be centred on East Street and its junction with Parliament Street.

Ramsey has already seen significant improvements around the Courthouse area with new paving and street furniture.

Money for the scheme was allocated from government’s regeneration fund.

In addition to the regeneration scheme work on the Albert Road car park development got under way this week.

Steven Stanley is the regeneration manager he told us what’s in store:
