Hello, good evening. Passengers are struggling to get to and from the | :00:22. | :00:24. | |
islands tonight as flights are being disrupted after problems at Gatwick | :00:25. | :00:28. | |
Airport. This was the scene at there a short time ago. All flights into | :00:29. | :00:31. | |
Guernsey are expect to arrive but the airport will stay open late to | :00:32. | :00:34. | |
cope with delays. British Airways flights to Jersey are badly | :00:35. | :00:37. | |
disrupted. Three flights are still trying to leave the island and four | :00:38. | :00:41. | |
flights have yet to arrive. The airport says they will stay open as | :00:42. | :00:45. | |
long as they can to get people home for Christmas. | :00:46. | :00:47. | |
It's claimed a new ship being built for Condor won't be able to fit into | :00:48. | :00:51. | |
Weymouth Harbour. The company, which serves Guernsey and Jersey with the | :00:52. | :00:54. | |
UK and France, aren't commenting but business leaders in the Dorset town | :00:55. | :00:58. | |
say it would have a severe impact on businesses there and on passengers | :00:59. | :01:01. | |
wanting to travel to and from the Channel Islands. | :01:02. | :01:04. | |
The Condor Vitesse moored up in Weymouth. This ship was built in | :01:05. | :01:08. | |
1998 but this is the one it's thought Condor want to buy. However | :01:09. | :01:13. | |
according to the local paper in Weymouth the ship, being built in | :01:14. | :01:16. | |
Australia, won't fit into the harbour there, which would have a | :01:17. | :01:19. | |
knock on effect on Guernsey and Jersey. A lot of holiday`makers from | :01:20. | :01:29. | |
the UK do filter through here on the way to the Channel Islands on | :01:30. | :01:34. | |
holiday. A lot of the locals here take regular holidays on the Channel | :01:35. | :01:37. | |
Islands so it is important for them to have it. It is important for the | :01:38. | :01:40. | |
town and it shows confidence that Condor want to stay there and it | :01:41. | :01:45. | |
allows them to bring a lot more people across at a time. | :01:46. | :01:49. | |
Business leaders say in Dorset say the town is still recovering from | :01:50. | :01:52. | |
the forced closure of Weymouth port last year. Problems with the harbour | :01:53. | :01:56. | |
wall led to Condor being forced to move some of its services to Poole | :01:57. | :01:59. | |
further up the coast. Condor aren't commenting but say | :02:00. | :02:01. | |
they're still in talks with shipbuilders. The company are also | :02:02. | :02:04. | |
still in negotiations with the States in Guernsey and Jersey about | :02:05. | :02:07. | |
future services between the Channel Islands and the UK. | :02:08. | :02:12. | |
Guernsey's incumbent bus operator has had its contract extended with | :02:13. | :02:19. | |
the States until March 2015. The Environment Department says changing | :02:20. | :02:22. | |
bus operators for just a year, starting from April 2014, wouldn't | :02:23. | :02:25. | |
be a good use of taxpayers money. However the department says the | :02:26. | :02:28. | |
formal tendering process for a bus service beyond March 2015 is now | :02:29. | :02:30. | |
underway. A listed Church has been given | :02:31. | :02:34. | |
permission to be converted into homes and offices. The Methodist | :02:35. | :02:38. | |
Zion Chapel was used in a teenage `` built in 1881 and last used in 010. | :02:39. | :02:43. | |
Proceeds from the development will be kept in the island. | :02:44. | :02:46. | |
Work to make St Aubin safer for cyclists and walkers has begun. | :02:47. | :02:52. | |
Roads will be made smaller and the speed limit lowered to make it | :02:53. | :02:55. | |
easier for people to pass through the Jersey village safely. The | :02:56. | :02:58. | |
constable says the work is about striking a balance for drivers and | :02:59. | :03:02. | |
people on bike or foot. There have been complaints over a | :03:03. | :03:06. | |
long period of time about traffic that drives too fast, conflict | :03:07. | :03:11. | |
between cyclists, pedestrians and cars and really we just wanted to | :03:12. | :03:15. | |
have a scheme that was going to try and solve some of those issues and I | :03:16. | :03:21. | |
think this does in many ways. Let us get that all`important | :03:22. | :03:23. | |
