Ground-breaking ceremony commences construction
Following the Manx government's purchase of the Steam Packet, buying the site for the new Liverpool landing stage was the logical thing to do.
That's the view of Chief Minister Howard Quayle, who was speaking after the ground-breaking ceremony took place on Merseyside yesterday.
The £38 million project is due to be completed by summer next year.
Mr Quayle says being in control of the entire route makes sense:
No public board meeting for Manx Care due to General Election
But health body 'committed to openness and transparency'
Chauffeur needed to provide 'professional and discreet service' for VIPs
Opportunity to work at 'heart of Island’s constitutional and ceremonial life’
Fire officer praises 'quick-thinking' staff after blaze at fire station
Investigations continuing after incident which destroyed fire engine
Chief Minister: 'AG not out to silence debate'
