Castletown Town Commissioners has announced that an agreement has been reached to appoint a contractor for Phase 2 of the School Hill redevelopment scheme.
Over 100 homes are planned for the area, with phase two making up 48, followed by a further 45 in phase three.
The authority said discussions with the government ensured preparations were in place for a timely start to the next phase of this key town regeneration project.

A further update will follow once government approvals are confirmed, including details of the chosen contractor and the anticipated start date.
