Proposals are being considered to rebuild the South West's main railway line in part of Devon because of it being repeatedly battered by storms.

Network Rail wants to build a 400m (1,300ft) causeway near Teignmouth about 30 yards out to sea in a project possibly costing up to £500m. It would replace the flood-hit Dawlish line, which connects the region to the rest of the country.

Tracks in the area have suffered severe damage in the past, with them left dangling in mid-air in the wake of storms in 2014. The line was closed for several weeks in March 2014 and cost the economy up to £1.2bn.

The working practices of a gutter cleaning company boss jailed for manslaughter were "inevitably going to lead to the serious injury and death of one his employees at some point in time", police say.

Utterley Gutterley boss Colin Jeffery has been jailed for five years after being found guilty at Exeter Crown Court of the manslaughter by gross negligence of 17-year-old Mason Beau Jennians in 2014.

Detective Inspector Steve Davies, from Devon and Cornwall Police, said Jeffery - 58, from Durham Close, Paignton - had employees working on ladders "with a flagrant disregard for the regulations which govern work at height, which are there to protect workers from death and injury". 

"He completely failed to consider or implement even the most basic of safety measures," he said.

If you've driven through mid Cornwall, you can't have missed it - two towers that are 300ft-high that mark the location of Cornwall's new incinerator. It's now working at 80% capacity. 

Is it your understanding that the incinerator is dealing with all of Cornwall's waste? Well, you'd be wrong. It only handles domestic waste that fits certain criteria, and it's causing real problems for companies that handle trade waste.

Cornwall Council said it "appreciates the challenge that some businesses are having to find suitable outlets for their commercial and industrial waste", but added it was "not our statutory function to do so".

A 39-year-old man has died after "tombstoning" off cliffs on Plymouth's seafront. 

The activity sees thrill-seekers leap from high places into open water, and the latest figures show it has led to an average of two deaths a year over the past 10 years.

Emergency services warn against the activity for many reasons, including: 

• Water depth alters with the tide - the water may be shallower than it seems
• Submerged objects like rocks may not be visible. They can cause serious injury if you jump onto them
• The shock of cold water may make it difficult to swim 
• Strong currents can rapidly sweep people away

Tombstoning has led to an average of two deaths a year over the past 10 years  coastguards have said after a man died jumping off cliffs in Plymouth.

Between 2005 and 2015 coastguards dealt with more than 200 incidents of tombstoning, with 83 injuries and 20 deaths. 

An 11-year-old boy died in July after reportedly tombstoning from a bridge into a canal in Rotherham. 

Cornwall Council issued a warning after receiving reports of alcohol-fuelled young people in Bude, St Ives, Newquay and Portreath leaping from road bridges, locks and closed-off piers.

Simon Blackburn from the Local Government Association, said: "The message is clear - if you don't know that the depth of the water is safe or you cannot see what is below the surface, don't jump."
