Re: Damage reports 18 Jan 2007

High winds are affecting road and rail travel and at least one visitor attraction in the West.

The M48 old Severn bridge is shut, with traffic being diverted via the second Severn crossing.
Westonbirt Arboretum in Gloucestershire is expected to be closed because of concerns about falling trees.
Train operator First Great Western said there was a 50mph restriction affecting services via Swindon, Bristol Temple Meads and Gloucester.
Strong winds - gusting to more than 50mph - and heavy rain made driving conditions on the M4 in South Gloucestershire and Wiltshire difficult. The line between Swindon and Cheltenham, which was closed earlier this week after a train became derailed as a result of a landslip at Kemble, reopened on Thursday.
