Regeneration works in Douglas to start this month

Fri, 01 Mar 2013

Nelson Street has already been regenerated

The main Douglas Regeneration Scheme work will start later this month and will last until November.

Work will get under way on Regent, Drumgold and Victoria streets on March 3rd.

These areas will see new paving fitted, which it’s hoped, will be better for pedestrians and retailers.

The work is part of an ongoing effort to revitalise the appearance of Douglas after the capital was criticised for looking tired and worn-down.

The Department of Infrastructure has confirmed the work will be undertaken using two work gangs, working 15-hour shifts, six days a week.
