Plans to close the ticket offices at Ryde and Shanklin stations are set to be withdrawn following intervention from the government. It was back in July that it was proposed that both the Ryde and Shanklin ticket offices could be closed. The plans were launched as train companies across the United Kingdom looked to cut costs to support operations. A negative reaction from the Isle of Wight community followed the announcement of the plans which were set to see just a single member of staff roving the platforms at Ryde and Shanklin on hand to help customers in need. The ticket office at Ryde was only completed when the transport interchange was upgraded. Transport secretary Mark Harper has now said that plans should be withdrawn.

Stupid idiot!!!
He’s not worth replying to, it’s what the idiot wants! Ignore anything he posts and hopefully he will disappear
There seems to be a theme to your comments.
Your not wrong there mate, a brainless twatt writing brainless comments
More likely some young bloke speeding because they are late for work.
More likely a younger person not driving to the conditions – don’t immediately assume they’re older!!
And there was you thinking you were funny, and or clever. You’re neither. You’re just an infant in a grown up’s body.
Most probably going by the law of averages and the time of the accident it was a millennial trying to impress themselves by driving too fast in the poor conditions.
Mustn’t be late for the minimum wage, zero hour job,
What is wrong with you

There must be a lot of ice around at the moment,as signs up on many roads. Marvelous this global warming, temperature of 10° !!??????
Only one cause on that stretch of road to be like that,speeding!
Or looking at the phone.
Gordon Bennett not another one. Get your pile of monkey nuts of a council to sort your dangerous roads out. That road has always been dangerous
Speeding is usually the problem
20 is plenty.
Show me a road on the island where people do not break
the speed limit
Speed cameras and Anpr will help solve the problem.
Funny. I thought speeding (along with tailgating, jumping red lights and cutting up other road users) was a requirement for driving a builder’s van.
Drive it like you stole it. Sweet.My damage rating NA NO pictures.
