A footbridge in Shanklin will be closed for five days later this month for maintenance and repairs.
The project at the Alresford Footbridge, in Alresford Road, will involve replacing some of the steelwork supports, repairing damaged mesh panels and painting parts of the structure.
The works will begin on Monday 13 February and are due to be finished on Saturday 18 February.
Some overnight working will be required during the works, and a pedestrian diversion will be in place.
