:00:00. > :00:08.That's it for now. We're back with the late news at 10.40pm. Now
:00:09. > :00:13.Good evening. Businesses in Lincoln are criticising the city council for
:00:14. > :00:17.deciding to close traffic access to one of the city's main shopping
:00:18. > :00:20.streets next month. It's been described as a U`turn after
:00:21. > :00:25.assurances were given that a closure wouldn't be needed. An extra ?80,000
:00:26. > :00:32.is being spent on repairing Newport Arch at the top of Bailgate, as
:00:33. > :00:35.Jessica Lane reports. Weather damage and general corrosion
:00:36. > :00:39.led to urgent repairs on newport arch. This Roman gate is gateway to
:00:40. > :00:43.the city and the bailgate shopping area. Traders not happy the road
:00:44. > :00:54.underneath will be closed to traffic for up to five weeks next month.
:00:55. > :00:58.We have the road restoration two years ago and it has taken a year
:00:59. > :01:03.and a half for people to start coming back in serious numbers. It
:01:04. > :01:08.takes a long time because they start shopping elsewhere. Some only found
:01:09. > :01:13.out about the closure from a letter. It seems subtle to close an archway
:01:14. > :01:19.yet it has a very significant effect on to the wrists and people coming
:01:20. > :01:26.into the city. They will not come in this direction. People will be able
:01:27. > :01:30.to walk through but the road will be closed. Cars will have to go down
:01:31. > :01:33.Rasen Lane, along Burton Road, turn onto westgate and drive down Chapel
:01:34. > :01:50.Lane before ending up back on bailgate the other side of the arch.
:01:51. > :01:53.When the contractors develop their plan a little farther they said
:01:54. > :01:59.there was really no alternative for the short period. It is an arch that
:02:00. > :02:03.bridge as I rode therefore is necessary to create a safe space for
:02:04. > :02:06.them to work. The city of Lincoln council is meeting traders on Monday
:02:07. > :02:10.to talk about putting up signs to say bailgate shops are staying open
:02:11. > :02:15.while the repairs are done to make sure it's business as usual for all
:02:16. > :02:20.concerned. The sister of a man whose body was
:02:21. > :02:23.left in a Hull Mortuary for 11 years says she'll be told next month
:02:24. > :02:27.whether anyone should have been prosecuted. The review is looking at
:02:28. > :02:30.the decision not to charge anyone for the mix up over Christopher
:02:31. > :02:35.Alder's body. His funeral was held in 2001, but a woman called Grace
:02:36. > :02:38.Kamara was buried in his grave. In October, the Crown Prosecution
:02:39. > :02:41.Service said no one would be prosecuted, but it's now reviewing
:02:42. > :02:45.that. Thousands of pounds worth of hay and
:02:46. > :02:47.animal feed is on its way to the South of England after fundraising
:02:48. > :02:50.efforts by local farmers. Huge amounts of farmland have been
:02:51. > :02:53.submerged under flood water, so farmers in East Yorkshire and
:02:54. > :02:58.Lincolnshire have made donations of straw, feed and even clothing. The
:02:59. > :03:02.latest consignment left Gainsborough this morning.
:03:03. > :03:05.Sport now, and Scunthorpe United improved their promotion chances
:03:06. > :03:09.after coming from behind to win at Accrington last night. The Iron
:03:10. > :03:12.trailed 2`0 at half time to their Lancashire rivals, but fought back
:03:13. > :03:18.in the Second Half and sealed the win with a last minute goal from
:03:19. > :03:21.defender David Mirfin. The Iron are level on points with leaders
:03:22. > :03:24.Chesterfield. In Football there were mixed
:03:25. > :03:27.fortunes for our sides today. Grimsby Town will have to overturn a
:03:28. > :03:31.2`1 deficit if they're to get through to the Final of the FA
:03:32. > :03:34.Trophy after losing at Cambridge this afternoon. In the Conference
:03:35. > :03:38.Premier Lincoln City won their third game in four matches with a two nil
:03:39. > :03:43.win at home against Kidderminster Harriers. Hull Kingston Rovers are
:03:44. > :03:51.expecting a sell out crowd at Craven Park for tomorrow's Super League
:03:52. > :03:55.opener against Leeds. More than 10,000 tickets have been sold for
:03:56. > :04:00.the game and staff at the club have been praised for the work they've
:04:01. > :04:08.done to attract extra fans. They are obviously very passionate
:04:09. > :04:11.about what they are doing. The excitement of a new team that is
:04:12. > :04:16.looking strong will get people excited. A bit of pressure on us to
:04:17. > :04:23.perform. And here's the weather, with Jennifer Bartrum.
:04:24. > :04:29.The showers are dying out through the night and we could see a touch
:04:30. > :04:34.of frost. He is the picture overnight with the wind is coming
:04:35. > :04:38.down from the North West. The showers are also dying out so we
:04:39. > :04:47.will see a touch of frost and possibly some ice on untreated
:04:48. > :04:52.surfaces. Into Sunday, it is looking like a much better day. The winds
:04:53. > :04:57.will remain fairly light and from the West temperatures getting up to
:04:58. > :05:02.seven Celsius. We will see decent spells of sunshine and most places
:05:03. > :05:03.students she dry. And that's it. Our next bulletin's tomorrow evening at
:05:04. > :05:15.6:20. Til then, bye bye. Hello, good evening, finally some
:05:16. > :05:18.quieter weather on the way for the British Isles for the remainder of
:05:19. > :05:22.this weekend, also somewhat for the week ahead. More on that in a
:05:23. > :05:29.moment. Tonight, the biggest story is the winds continuing to ease
:05:30. > :05:33.Into the small hours of Sunday, the winds will be light. Late showers
:05:34. > :05:37.for Scotland, Northern Ireland and northern England. A lot of
