A new bus route including a service to Cregneash will operate year-round seven days a week.

The 85 service will connect Peel and Foxdale with the south of the Island, including the Sound via Cregneash.

It will also serve the Airport, Castletown, Port Erin and Port St Mary.

Breaking the news on the Mannin Line this afternoon, Infrastructure Minister Michelle Haywood said she hopes the route will be up and running soon.

Siobhán Fletcher spoke to her when she came off air to find out more.

Hundreds of people are being invited to dash across Peel promenade later this summer...dressed as dinosaurs.

The organisers of the 'world's largest unofficial T-rex run', which took place on Douglas promenade last year, have announced they're taking the event out west.

So-called 'T-Fest' is the brainchild of Expedition Limitless, which is aiming to raise £200,000 in support of The Children’s Centre and Rebecca House Children’s Hospice.

Last year the group's efforts saw £111,000 donated to Manx Mencap.

Siobhán Fletcher caught up with Team Leader Martin Malone to find out more about the festival - and a major challenge he'll be taking on in September!
