A consultation is under way as part of a ‘Living Streets’ initiative for Castletown.

The DoI says the plans is to “explore how to improve the general environment and accessibility within residential areas of Castletown”.

Highway Services is asking for people’s views as part of the process, which aims to create “streets and places that are easy to move around, are safe and community-based”.

Traffic

The consultation asks contributors to consider things including:

• Reducing non-essential traffic using the area as a shortcut
• Making some roads/streets one-way
• Making it easier for people to walk, wheel and cycle
• Slowing down traffic
• Improving on-road parking

The consultation, which can be found here, will be live until January.

Two drop-in sessions will also be held next month at Castletown Civic Centre on Wednesday November 13, between 10am and midday; and Thursday November 21 between 2pm and 4pm.
