:00:12. > :00:14.There'll be major disruption on one of the busiest commuter

:00:15. > :00:16.routes into Bristol from tomorrow, as multimillion`pound repair work

:00:17. > :00:22.More than 19,000 vehicles use the Long Ashton bypass each day.

:00:23. > :00:31.It's a popular commuter route into Bristol.

:00:32. > :00:34.But from tomorrow morning two of three lanes on the Long Ashton

:00:35. > :00:45.From the road it's hard to see the Yanley Viaduct ,which supports

:00:46. > :00:51.It's 45 years old and parts of it have become badly worn

:00:52. > :00:53.from the thousands of vehicles which use it each day.

:00:54. > :01:01.If we don't do the work there is a risk that further on

:01:02. > :01:04.down the line the expansion joints in the bridge could seize,

:01:05. > :01:09.the bridge could then potentially buckle, which would cause far

:01:10. > :01:13.greater problems, far greater closure time to put it right.

:01:34. > :01:46.Whenever they do work on the bypass the always come through the village.

:01:47. > :01:57.So it will probably be witty hectic year. Win unless you. `` unless you

:01:58. > :01:58.physically stop people coming through here then it will be pretty

:01:59. > :01:59.bad. The only comfort for residents

:02:00. > :02:02.and commuters is that once this ?3.4 million project is complete

:02:03. > :02:04.the council says major work won't be needed here again

:02:05. > :02:06.for another 15 years. Madeleine Ware, BBC Points West,

:02:07. > :02:08.Long Ashton. Well, on top of that,

:02:09. > :02:10.though rather smaller in scale, there are works at the Clifton

:02:11. > :02:13.Suspension Bridge this week. Pedestrians can still use

:02:14. > :02:18.the bridge, cyclists can walk It is so that resurfacing and

:02:19. > :02:22.safety works can be carried out. If all this will directly affect you

:02:35. > :02:39.disruption so they are not going to close it until 9:30am. The roads

:02:40. > :02:43.will be reopened by 4:30pm for the same reasons. The roads will be open

:02:44. > :02:44.during the busiest times of the day and overnight. They will close

:02:45. > :02:49.during the main part of the day. If all this will directly affect you

:02:56. > :02:58.in our Points West bulletins Two wins and two defeats

:02:59. > :03:02.for our local football teams yesterday, on an afternoon which

:03:03. > :03:12.seemed to revolve around penalties. Little ones were probably not even

:03:27. > :03:35.top of the league. I am of you sleep pleased with their win. It is a good

:03:36. > :03:51.chance for us. You must be sick of the site of gelling. `` Gillingham.

:03:52. > :03:56.Swindon's afternoon will be remembered for this incident. Did

:03:57. > :04:07.Lewis Thompson felled Crawley striker? No goalkeeping heroics here

:04:08. > :04:12.to come Mark Cooper. The referee has given it from the halfway line,

:04:13. > :04:18.which I find truly amazing. I have seen it again and I believe that

:04:19. > :04:19.Thompson gets a touch on the ball. Koby Arthur had a fair bit more to

:04:20. > :04:24.do. It's half`time in the

:04:25. > :04:26.Women's Rugby World Cup final in Paris, and four local players have

:04:27. > :04:29.helped England to an 11`3 lead. The first try

:04:32. > :04:35.are glued to the television We'll have a full report

:04:36. > :04:39.in our late news tonight. There have been some

:04:40. > :04:41.interesting`looking props arriving Movie`makers have decided it's the

:04:42. > :04:47.perfect location to film some of the They'll be filming tomorrow,

:04:48. > :04:53.for one day only. And despite a lot of rumour

:04:54. > :04:57.and speculation, they have insisted Johnny Depp,

:04:58. > :05:00.the Mad Hatter, will not be on set. Let's hear from Bee Tucker now,

:05:01. > :05:13.with the forecast. We saw the winds pick up through

:05:14. > :05:17.the afternoon, but we did see some sunshine, and we?ll keep the breeze

:05:18. > :05:20.going as we go through the night. It should be a mainly dry night,

:05:21. > :05:23.there will be some showers scooting through, but I think most

:05:24. > :05:26.of us will have a dry one. Underneath the clear skies I think

:05:27. > :05:29.we will see temperatures a touch cooler than this, especially

:05:30. > :05:32.in rural areas, we could hit single figures, so a noticeably cooler

:05:33. > :05:34.night than the one just gone. Now, tomorrow,

:05:35. > :05:37.a bright and a breezy day, we keep It will feed one or two showers

:05:38. > :05:40.down and particularly out towards the east, we could see the odd heavy

:05:41. > :05:43.one towards the afternoon. In any spells of sunshine, though,

:05:44. > :05:46.not feeling particularly warm, the winds will make it feel a lot

:05:47. > :05:49.cooler than temperatures suggest, And we keep the winds going as we go

:05:50. > :05:54.through Tuesday, a mixture of sunny That is all. We will be back at ten

:05:55. > :06:11.o'clock. Goodbye. Good evening. It was a slow start

:06:12. > :06:17.for England and Wales. We got there in the end today. A cloudy morning,

:06:18. > :06:21.with some outbreaks of rain. As that weather front sank south, breaks in

:06:22. > :06:26.the cloud developed. Different further north - it stayed windy and

:06:27. > :06:31.wet, with showers and longer spells of rain at times. That low area of

:06:32. > :06:36.pressure drifts off to the east. A few showers drifting further south,

:06:37. > :06:40.inWales and northern England. The strongest of the winds first

:06:41. > :06:45.thing tomorrow morning across the far north-east of Scotland. Rough

:06:46. > :06:46.seas. Hopefully fewer showers than we have seen
