Floating Bridge out of action until 5th May

The Cowes floating bridge which is currently undergoing essential maintenance will be out of service until at least Friday 2 May Monday 5th May the council say.

It was hoped to be out of service for just one week.

Diversions remain in place for motorists and a passenger launch is also operating across the mouth of the River Medina.

Once a firm date for completion is announced, we’ll let you know.
