Natural Resources Wales has confirmed that two breaches on the Afon Ritec river culvert on Tenby’s South Beach have been identified.

Emergency exploratory works were carried out at the location in March, with NRW to return on May 7 for a period of up to four days to carry out permanent repair works.

“Works will once again be governed by tide times leaving a small window of opportunity each day for repair work to be carried out,” said a spokesperson for NRW.

Part of South Beach car park will be closed-off whilst the work takes place.
