5.3.5:There are inadequate links from Jurby to the South. Reference has recently been made to poor pharmacy provision in Ramsey. There is an excellent pharmacy in Kirk M7chael, which is readily accessible by bus from Ballaugh and Sulby, but not from Jurby.

Comments
6.6: Appropriate tree planting to mitigate climate change should be considered fir the Northern uplands, subject to preserving peat reserves and protecting scenic views
6.7.2 Ramsey Bay. The proposed criteria should preclude any development of a marina in the bay. If there is to be a marina (and I am in favour in principle) it should be within the harbour, preferably near the swimming pool.
6.7.5: Consideration should be given to siting solar farms in this area, on brownfield sites, or poorer agricultural land

10.7: Surface improvements to the former Ramsey to Peel Railway line should be location sensitive. Tarmac should be restricted to sections immediately adjacent to village settlements. A more environmentally sensitive surface should be considered for rural sections.
