MOTORBIKE riders forced people to dodge out of the way on Newport city footbridge, concerned residents have said.

Footage has shown that riders are still driving motorbikes across Newport city footbridge, despite police warnings not to do so.

The Argus previously reported this week that residents were furious that motorbike and scooter riders are increasingly being seen speeding across the bridge in the city centre.

Residents fear it is only a matter of time before someone gets hurt.

Former editor of the South Wales Argus, Kevin Ward, took pictures and tweeted yesterday that walkers had to take "evasive action".
