The village of Eastham in Worcestershire is a step closer | :00:00. | :00:08. | |
to having its own bridge again this evening. | :00:09. | :00:10. | |
The Grade II listed Eastham bridge collapsed in May last year, | :00:11. | :00:13. | |
from the main Worcester to Tenbury Wells road. | :00:14. | :00:17. | |
Today, though, steel beams were lowered into place | :00:18. | :00:19. | |
Today is the first time a structure has crossed this part of the river | :00:20. | :00:38. | |
since the sudden and dramatic collapse of Eastham Bridge last May. | :00:39. | :00:45. | |
These 33 metre, 84 tonne steel beams are the backbone of the long-awaited | :00:46. | :00:48. | |
new bridge. Major milestone in the project today. It is the left of two | :00:49. | :00:52. | |
braced appears obscure beams across the river. -- steel beams. It is the | :00:53. | :00:55. | |
first step to getting the bridge as we know it up and running. Once the | :00:56. | :00:57. | |
beams are in possession, we are able to building up the bridge deck | :00:58. | :01:34. | |
and then the access roads, so in a couple of months we should have it | :01:35. | :01:37. | |
open to traffic. It is welcome news for the villagers. We farm either | :01:38. | :01:40. | |
side of the river so we have had a tremendous detours for months, | :01:41. | :01:42. | |
to the other side unless we do the to the other side unless we do the | :01:43. | :01:45. | |
ten mile detour through either temporary or Stanford. What matters | :01:46. | :01:48. | |
is the cold and rainy day here but people have gathered and the | :01:49. | :01:50. | |
atmosphere is one of excitement as they see the first steps of bringing | :01:51. | :01:52. | |
the community back together. It has been a long road. We have had ten | :01:53. | :01:56. | |
miles round up as a beach towns of today we are very excited and | :01:57. | :01:58. | |
looking forward to seeing it happen. I am excited because it is going to | :01:59. | :02:01. | |
be shorter journey to school night. No excuses for being late! | :02:02. | :02:02. | |
Residents of a small village affected by HS2 | :02:03. | :02:04. | |
say they're planning to fight it all the way. | :02:05. | :02:06. | |

The village of Packington on the edge of North Warwickshire | :02:09. | :02:11. | |
of the proposed high speed rail line. | :02:12. | :02:13. | |
Today, the sound of trains was blasted through speakers | :02:14. | :02:16. | |
and tall flags showed the height of the line. | :02:17. | :02:18. | |
It is going to go up the sides of two double-decker buses with a rain | :02:19. | :02:23. | |
on top, so it is going to be very high. And it is the whole of this | :02:24. | :02:26. | |
particular street that we live in, Millstreet, we are going to get a | :02:27. | :02:28. | |
rain every three minutes and that is going to be from six o'clock in the | :02:29. | :02:30. | |
morning to 11 o'clock at night. West Mercia Police | :02:31. | :02:33. | |
have begun an investigation after two bodies were found in | :02:34. | :02:35. | |
a disused building in Oswestry. Police were called to the building | :02:36. | :02:37. | |
on Maesbury Road in the town yesterday evening, and found | :02:38. | :02:40. | |
the bodies of a man and a woman. The deaths are being | :02:41. | :02:43. | |
treated as unexplained. In the Premier League, | :02:44. | :02:45. | |

a 2-1 victory against Bournemouth. In the Championship, Aston Villa | :02:50. | :02:54. | |
have won for the first time since Boxing Day, to ease | :02:55. | :02:56. | |
their relegation fears. They beat Derby 1-0 with a goal | :02:57. | :02:59. | |
from James Chester. It's a sad story in League One, | :03:00. | :03:03. | |
where there were defeats for Walsall, Coventry, | :03:04. | :03:06. | |
Shrewsbury and Port Vale. And at the bottom of League Two, | :03:07. | :03:09. | |
Cheltenham have boosted their chances of avoiding relegation | :03:10. | :03:12. | |
by beating Leyton Orient. In the National League, | :03:13. | :03:16. | |

at the Genting Arena in Birmingham. Earlier, Severn Stars were beaten | :03:30. | :03:33. | |
by Loughborough Lightning. Now, before the weather, | :03:34. | :03:44. | |
have a look at this. It's probably the oldest | :03:45. | :03:46. | |
building in the world Parts of the building in Shrewsbury | :03:47. | :03:48. | |
date back to the 12th Century. It's been rather a dull day | :03:49. | :03:53. | |
across the Midlands today. Good evening. Well, it has certainly | :03:54. | :04:15. | |
been windy today. We saw gusts up to 33 mph in parts of the region today. | :04:16. | :04:20. | |
As we head to enter tomorrow, we will keep that breeze. It will ease | :04:21. | :04:23. | |
for a time tonight. Still some showers working our way across us. | :04:24. | :04:29. | |
At times, heavy downpours. With the cloud, and a few holes in it through | :04:30. | :04:32. | |
into the early hours of tomorrow morning, we could see some mist | :04:33. | :04:46. | |
patches. We start on a mild and not tomorrow but it is not going to last | :04:47. | :04:49. | |
for too long. Plenty of cloud in the next. There might be the odd bright | :04:50. | :04:52. | |
spell before the next area of rain works and from the West. Double | :04:53. | :04:54. | |
figures. Temperatures up to 11 Celsius. Breezy and turning colder | :04:55. | :04:55. | |
enter next week. Before we go, a reminder that | :04:56. | :04:55. | |
Patrick Burns will be here with the Sunday Politics | :04:56. | :04:58. | |
tomorrow from 11 o'clock. Patrick will be joined by the winner | :04:59. | :05:00. | |
of the Stoke Central Good evening. Starting with a quick | :05:01. | :05:15. | |
look at the satellite sequence from earlier. We started under a big | :05:16. | :05:20. | |
blanket of cloud but Scotland and Northern Ireland brightened up as | :05:21. | :05:24. | |
the day went off. Underneath the cloud in England and Wales, quite a | :05:25. | :05:28. | |
bit of rain at the moment, drifting southwards and East. It will | :05:29. | :05:33. | |
continue to do so. In the small hours the rain will become patchy, | :05:34. | :05:37. | |
and most will give way to the continent. There will be some | :05:38. | :05:42. | |
breaks, particularly to the East of Scotland, where there could be a | :05:43. | :05:47. | |
touch of frost. Next batch of rain into the western side of Scotland | :05:48. | :05:50. | |
first thing, moving east with a little snow over higher ground. | :05:51. | :05:54. | |
Another pulse of rain coming towards the Irish Sea area and with that | :05:55. | :05:59. | |
comes really strong winds, blowing a gale, and into Scotland it could get | :06:00. | :06:05. | |
to 50, 60 mph. A lot of rain to go with that but not too much for East | :06:06. | :06:10. | |
Anglia and the south-east, relatively mild. Double digits | :06:11. | :06:12. |
