Building work on a third bridge connecting Anglesey | :00:16. | :00:19. | |
with the mainland, could start by 2021 if plans to ease traffic | :00:20. | :00:23. | |
The Welsh Government says experts will start looking at routes | :00:24. | :00:28. | |
There are currently two ways to get onto and off Anglesey by car | :00:29. | :00:37. | |
but within a few years there could be another. | :00:38. | :00:40. | |
The A55, which was extended across the island has helped improve | :00:41. | :00:43. | |
journey times but bottlenecks at the Menai and Britannia bridges | :00:44. | :00:47. | |
Those who've spent years campaigning for a new one say it's long overdue. | :00:48. | :00:52. | |
There are delays to the mainland in the morning and from mainland | :00:53. | :00:55. | |
If something seriously goes wrong then it does affect | :00:56. | :01:02. | |
Businesses like Halen Mon, a sea salt company, think the whole | :01:03. | :01:07. | |
island would benefit from a new bridge. | :01:08. | :01:11. | |
At the moment, some people don't think we have any bridges at all. | :01:12. | :01:14. | |
They think we have boats that cross very infrequently, so, you know, | :01:15. | :01:17. | |
if we have a third bridge it will raise the profile of Anglesey. | :01:18. | :01:20. | |
There are those who argue that congestion is only at its worst | :01:21. | :01:23. | |
Meanwhile, some others including businesses think road | :01:24. | :01:27. | |
improvements are vastly overdue but with the Menai and Britannia | :01:28. | :01:30. | |
Crossings already in place, would a third be a bridge too far? | :01:31. | :01:34. | |
Although the island's MP welcomes the progress, | :01:35. | :01:37. | |
he wants all options to be considered. | :01:38. | :01:40. | |
We need to look properly at this, have proper traffic flows | :01:41. | :01:42. | |
and reports, not just for those pinch points but for | :01:43. | :01:45. | |
Let's consult on all the options, that is what I'm saying, | :01:46. | :01:50. | |
we need to improve rail links, other links as well. | :01:51. | :01:53. | |
There were split opinions among motorists in this | :01:54. | :01:55. | |
When I'm shopping there's always a lot of traffic going over | :01:56. | :02:00. | |
the Britannia Bridge so I think it'd be a good idea. | :02:01. | :02:04. | |
I don't think it's bad in comparison to other places. | :02:05. | :02:07. | |
There are critical periods but it flows. | :02:08. | :02:14. | |
The Welsh government says it will explore ways of funding | :02:15. | :02:16. | |
the crossing and hire consultants to select the best location | :02:17. | :02:19. | |

to win a rowing medal at the Olympic Games. | :03:36. | :03:38. | |
She took Silver with her partner Katherine Grainger | :03:39. | :03:41. | |
The pair missed out on gold by just half a length | :03:42. | :03:45. | |
After the race Thornley said she'd dreamt of winning an Olympic medal | :03:46. | :03:51. | |
I think it will sink in soon but, amazing. | :03:52. | :03:57. | |
I think we did everything we could in that race and in quite | :03:58. | :04:00. | |
difficult conditions I think we did what we set out to do. | :04:01. | :04:05. | |

Let's see what the weather has in store - Derek's | :05:58. | :05:59. | |
It doesn't feel much like summer at the moment but at the start of next | :06:00. | :06:11. | |
week it'll be different story. Like today and mostly dry. At the moment | :06:12. | :06:17. | |
we have some drivel on the hills, otherwise a dry night. The wind | :06:18. | :06:22. | |
easing and the claret clearing after midnight. Fairly mild and those of | :06:23. | :06:28. | |
16 Celsius. There is a chance of seeing a meteor shower around 200 | :06:29. | :06:33. | |
shooting stars an hour. Tomorrow morning, fine with plenty of | :06:34. | :06:40. | |
sunshine. A nice start to the day but later in the morning cloud will | :06:41. | :06:44. | |
spread from the West and that may produce some light shallows but most | :06:45. | :06:50. | |
places drive. In the rest of the UK windy in the north tomorrow, heavy | :06:51. | :06:54. | |
rainfall for the West and north-west of Scotland. That will spread | :06:55. | :06:57. | |
further south across Northern Ireland. Ahead of that most places | :06:58. | :07:02. | |
fine and dry. The best of the sunshine in the South East. 25 or 26 | :07:03. | :07:09. | |
in London. The bad light shower in the West. Photos tomorrow afternoon | :07:10. | :07:18. | |
a mix of cloud and sunny spells. You may catch a light shower but many | :07:19. | :07:23. | |
places remaining dry. Tomorrow night a cold front will move south east. | :07:24. | :07:30. | |
That will bring the River for it. For Saturday a dull and damp start | :07:31. | :07:36. | |
in the South but this will clear away the coming dry and bright, some | :07:37. | :07:42. | |
sunshine and the odd light shower in the north. A mix of cloud and sunny | :07:43. | :07:49. | |
spells. Monday looks like a lovely day. Learn what with plenty of | :07:50. | :07:51. | |
sunshine and even hotter on Tuesday. Thank you for watching from all | :07:52. | :07:56. | |
of us on the programme, good night. | :07:57. | :08:01. |
