A Saundersfoot County Councillor has said that they are hopeful that the closed coastal path connecting Coppet Hall and Wisemans Bridge will reopen before the summer.

At the recent meeting of Saundersfoot Community Council, chair Alec Cormack reported that Pembrokeshire County Council now had a plan to clear the landslip on the coastal path.

Preparatory vegetation clearing has already taken place, whilst a specialist ‘Spider Excavator’ will arrive onsite on March 31 and ‘climb up’ from the beach onto the path to clear the fallen rock.

No opening date can yet be provided, but Cllr Cormack stressed that he was hopeful that the route would reopen before the expiry of the recent 4 month closure order that was put in place by the Local Authority

He thanked all PCC officers who have worked hard on this project.

As soon as the Community Council know a firm date, they will publicise it.
