Tynwald petition to reinstate Sound bus service

A petition with more than 900 signatures will demand Tynwald members reinstate public transport on a route in the south of the Island.

When the court sits in January, Rushen MHK Juan Watterson will present the petition to provide services from Port Erin and Port St. Mary to Cregneash and The Sound.

The document asks Tynwald members to call on the Department of Infrastructure to put in services after it cut buses to the Sound.

Petition founder Christa Viohl has been joined by 916 others signing the petition.
