Transport Policy 3
Source: Isle of Man Strategic Plan 2016
Transport Policy 3: New development on or around existing and former rail routes should not compromise their attraction as a tourism and leisure facility or their potential as public transport routes, or cycle / leisure footpath routes.
11.3.1 The ability of new and existing highways to safely and efficiently accommodate the traffic generated by new development is an important factor when considering the location and layout of new development. Not only must the traffic routes involved be of a size which is capable of taking the projected volume of traffic but they must also be designed so that points of potential traffic conflict such as junctions and roundabouts are in an appropriate location and of a suitable design, including provision for pedestrians. The need for new and improved highways in order to facilitate new development must be balanced against the environmental objectives of this plan.
