After several years of deadlock, Conwy Councilllors voted today to move forward with the acquisition of the semi-derelict Colwyn Bay Pier.
This has to be good news for this beleaguered structure. The Plan is for the Council to grant a Lease to a local Community Group, who can work to both obtain grant funding for renovation work, whilst also carrying out smaller jobs themselves and reopening some of the pier's facilities to the public. I wish them the best of luck.
Severe overgrown bushes and tree branches have severely narrowed the public
footpath connecting Powys Road to Criccieth Close. The thick foliage
completely obstructs the walkway, making it extremely difficult to push a
baby pram or walk safely alongside young children. Because the path is
hidden and unmaintained, it is constantly littered with dog fouling every
morning. As an active daily route to Blessed William Davies Catholic
Primary School, this creates an immediate safety and health hazard for
young families and school children. Requesting urgent hedge trimming and
street cleansing., 4th September

That is good news, I was just looking at some old photos of the pier today and wishing something could be done.
