A Wightlink Isle of Wight car ferry will operate a 'last resort' revised timetable on Sunday (August 18), the operator has announced.

Wightlink has confirmed disruption on its Isle of Wight to Lymington service.

The cross-Solent operator said the reason for the revised timetable is due to the absence of an essential crew member.

All affected customers have been contacted and moved to alternative sailings.

A Wightlink spokesperson added: "We sincerely apologise for the inconvenience this action will cause but we have been unable to source short notice cover for the absent members of staff and so have taken this action as a last resort.

"Again, we apologise sincerely for any changes to your travel plans."
