Salmon and sea trout will have an easier time of it as they try to get up the River Neb to spawn, thanks to a new weir.
It has been constructed at Ballaleece, on the Peel side of St John's, and is the combined work of the Department of Environment, Food and Agriculture; the Department of Infrastructure; and the Water and Sewerage Authority.
A previous structure had fallen into disrepair, and the fish were finding it difficult to reach vital spawning grounds.
Department spokesperson Karen McHarg says it's a big improvement:
