Hello. be | :00:12. | :00:11. | |
There'll be major disruption on one of the busiest commuter | :00:12. | :00:14. | |
routes into Bristol from tomorrow, as multimillion`pound repair work | :00:15. | :00:16. | |
More than 19,000 vehicles use the Long Ashton bypass each day. | :00:17. | :00:22. | |
It's a popular commuter route into Bristol. | :00:23. | :00:31. | |
But from tomorrow morning two of three lanes on the Long Ashton | :00:32. | :00:34. | |
From the road it's hard to see the Yanley Viaduct ,which supports | :00:35. | :00:45. | |
It's 45 years old and parts of it have become badly worn | :00:46. | :00:51. | |
from the thousands of vehicles which use it each day. | :00:52. | :00:53. | |
If we don't do the work there is a risk that further on | :00:54. | :01:01. | |
down the line the expansion joints in the bridge could seize, | :01:02. | :01:04. | |
the bridge could then potentially buckle, which would cause far | :01:05. | :01:09. | |
greater problems, far greater closure time to put it right. | :01:10. | :01:13. | |
Traffic on the bypass will only be able to travel in one direction, | :01:14. | :01:17. | |
with vehicles going into Bristol using it in the morning and outbound | :01:18. | :01:20. | |
There will be diversions ` one for cars and a longer one | :01:21. | :01:27. | |
There's no official diversion through Long Ashton, but residents | :01:28. | :01:33. | |
Whenever they do work on the bypass the always come through the village. | :01:34. | :01:46. | |
So it will probably be witty hectic year. Win unless you. `` unless you | :01:47. | :01:57. | |
physically stop people coming through here then it will be pretty | :01:58. | :01:58. | |
bad. The only comfort for residents | :01:59. | :01:59. | |
and commuters is that once this ?3.4 million project is complete | :02:00. | :02:02. | |
the council says major work won't be needed here again | :02:03. | :02:04. | |
for another 15 years. Madeleine Ware, BBC Points West, | :02:05. | :02:06. | |
Long Ashton. Well, on top of that, | :02:07. | :02:08. | |
though rather smaller in scale, there are works at the Clifton | :02:09. | :02:10. | |
Suspension Bridge this week. Pedestrians can still use | :02:11. | :02:13. | |
the bridge, cyclists can walk It is so that resurfacing and | :02:14. | :02:18. | |
safety works can be carried out. If all this will directly affect you | :02:19. | :02:22. | |
tomorrow morning, then you might Obviously it will cause some | :02:23. | :02:34. | |
disruption so they are not going to close it until 9:30am. The roads | :02:35. | :02:39. | |
will be reopened by 4:30pm for the same reasons. The roads will be open | :02:40. | :02:43. | |
during the busiest times of the day and overnight. They will close | :02:44. | :02:44. | |
during the main part of the day. If all this will directly affect you | :02:45. | :02:49. | |
tomorrow morning, then you might find it worth listening | :02:50. | :02:52. | |

in our Points West bulletins Two wins and two defeats | :02:56. | :02:58. | |
for our local football teams yesterday, on an afternoon which | :02:59. | :03:02. | |
seemed to revolve around penalties. Little ones were probably not even | :03:03. | :03:12. | |
born the last time Bristol City were top of the B, but that they are. `` | :03:13. | :03:26. | |
top of the league. I am of you sleep pleased with their win. It is a good | :03:27. | :03:35. | |
chance for us. You must be sick of the site of gelling. `` Gillingham. | :03:36. | :03:51. | |
Swindon's afternoon will be remembered for this incident. Did | :03:52. | :03:56. | |
Lewis Thompson felled Crawley striker? No goalkeeping heroics here | :03:57. | :04:07. | |
to come Mark Cooper. The referee has given it from the halfway line, | :04:08. | :04:12. | |
which I find truly amazing. I have seen it again and I believe that | :04:13. | :04:18. | |
Thompson gets a touch on the ball. Koby Arthur had a fair bit more to | :04:19. | :04:19. | |
do. It's half`time in the | :04:20. | :04:24. | |
Women's Rugby World Cup final in Paris, and four local players have | :04:25. | :04:26. | |

perfect location to film some of the They'll be filming tomorrow, | :04:42. | :04:47. | |
for one day only. And despite a lot of rumour | :04:48. | :04:53. | |
and speculation, they have insisted Johnny Depp, | :04:54. | :04:57. | |
the Mad Hatter, will not be on set. Let's hear from Bee Tucker now, | :04:58. | :05:00. | |
with the forecast. We saw the winds pick up through | :05:01. | :05:13. | |
the afternoon, but we did see some sunshine, and we?ll keep the breeze | :05:14. | :05:17. | |
going as we go through the night. It should be a mainly dry night, | :05:18. | :05:20. | |
there will be some showers scooting through, but I think most | :05:21. | :05:23. | |
of us will have a dry one. Underneath the clear skies I think | :05:24. | :05:26. | |
we will see temperatures a touch cooler than this, especially | :05:27. | :05:29. | |
in rural areas, we could hit single figures, so a noticeably cooler | :05:30. | :05:32. | |
night than the one just gone. Now, tomorrow, | :05:33. | :05:34. | |
a bright and a breezy day, we keep It will feed one or two showers | :05:35. | :05:37. | |
down and particularly out towards the east, we could see the odd heavy | :05:38. | :05:40. | |
one towards the afternoon. In any spells of sunshine, though, | :05:41. | :05:43. | |
not feeling particularly warm, the winds will make it feel a lot | :05:44. | :05:46. | |
cooler than temperatures suggest, And we keep the winds going as we go | :05:47. | :05:49. | |
through Tuesday, a mixture of sunny That is all. We will be back at ten | :05:50. | :05:54. | |
o'clock. Goodbye. Good evening. It was a slow start | :05:55. | :06:11. | |
for England and Wales. We got there in the end today. A cloudy morning, | :06:12. | :06:17. | |
with some outbreaks of rain. As that weather front sank south, breaks in | :06:18. | :06:21. | |
the cloud developed. Different further north - it stayed windy and | :06:22. | :06:26. | |
wet, with showers and longer spells of rain at times. That low area of | :06:27. | :06:31. | |
pressure drifts off to the east. A few showers drifting further south, | :06:32. | :06:36. | |
inWales and northern England. The strongest of the winds first | :06:37. | :06:40. | |
