Braddan Parish Commissioners has completed a deal with the government to buy a strip of land to create access to its Roundhouse.
The local authority was told it cannot use the Hospital grounds to access its community centre and must make alternative arrangements.
Negations have now been completed which will see access gained to the site via Ballaoates Road.
In a joint statement, chairman Andrew Jessopp and DHSC Minister Lawrie Hooper said: “The Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC) and Braddan Parish Commissioners (BPC) have signed the Agreement for Sale, which will transfer the land needed to create a dedicated access road to the Roundhouse, to the Commissioners.
“The sale of the land, for £250 means that full clearing and construction works can now take place to install an access road directly from Ballaoates Road to the Roundhouse. The work is expected to commence after the Manx Grand Prix, around the first week in September.”
It is expected the work will be finished by the end of the year.
