Has work on Douglas promenade restarted?

3FM is hearing reports work on the multi-million pound project re-started yesterday.

Ongoing work to the prom had stopped due to the Coronavirus pandemic.

This afternoon, Infrastructure Minister Ray Harmer is due to make his first appearance at the Covid-19 media press briefing.

The Department of Infrastructure has previously said the project will be finished by August 17, 2021 - however, due to Covid-19, it's now not known when the project is estimated to be completed.
