A Braddan commissioner says firm proposals to improve the Island’s sea defences need to be in place before work on redeveloping Douglas Promenade begins this autumn.

In 2015, then Infrastructure Minister Phil Gawne held a series of public meetings outlining options to improve sea defences.
Andrew Jessopp says events of recent days should refocus minds to make informed decisions about future investment in sea defences.
