A new initiative aimed at reducing anti-social behaviour and improving public spaces is launching in Ryde today.

Under current plans, council funding on the Isle of Wight could be reduced by £13.4 million over the next three years.

The latest certification underlines Hovertravel’s position as a leader in sustainable hovercraft operations.

The incident, involving at least three cars, occurred at the junction with St Lawrence Shute at around 8.20am.

Travel disruption, changing weather conditions and how well residents are kept informed were top of the agenda at the latest meeting of the Island Transport and Infrastructure Forum.

Officers attended the scene, where they found two intoxicated women playing loud music and being verbally abusive to members of the public.

The recommended figure represents an increase of £676 from the current allowance.

It was a packed and memorable weekend for Vectis RFC, with teams travelling across the mainland and making big strides on and off the pitch.
