The Floating Bridge is suspended today (Tuesday).
Isle of Wight Radio understands that a weld has blown on the north-west ram - which is causing oil to spill.
A foot passenger launch is in place instead.
A replacement launch service is being brought in for Cowes floating bridge this morning following an issue with one of the rams. The temporary launch service will continue until repairs are carried out. We apologise for any inconvenience. pic.twitter.com/8SBy8oVTpi
