GMTS needs to survey the area at La mare de Carteret High School which has been identified as an alternative venue for its training scheme.

TRAINING for new motorcyclists has been delayed for another week.

It had been expected that the Guernsey Motorcycle Training Scheme would take up its new home at La Mare de Carteret Primary School from this weekend.

But the Environment Department has confirmed that the scheme, which has been postponed since being evicted from Les Beaucamps High in February, will not start again until next weekend at the earliest.

‘Arrangements have been made for GMTS to survey the allocated site at La Mare de Carteret Primary School this weekend in order to establish how to make best use of the facilities in providing the required training for learner motorcyclists with a view to commencing training on site during the weekend of 2 and 3 April,’ a department spokesman said.
