Concerns are being expressed regarding the speed of traffic on several approach roads in and out of Tenby.

County councillor for Tenby’s north ward Cllr Michael Williams has sent correspondence to Pembrokeshire County Council to highlight the matter, with concerns in particular focusing on vehicles speeding along Narberth Road, Serpentine Road and Broadwell Hayes, this despite the current legal speed limit being 20mph.

“There is a particular issue on Narberth Road about which I have raised concerns in the recent past,” stated Cllr Williams.

“Bearing in mind the possible review of the 20mph speed restriction, what can be done to restrict speed on these roads?” he has asked PCC, seeking the views of Highways officers and Dyfed-Powys Police on how these roads can be made safer.

The matter has also been placed on the agenda of the meeting of Tenby Town Council tonight (July 8), with Cllr Laurence Blackhall stating that some residents have expressed concerns over the speed of some traffic coming into and exiting the seaside town on Narberth Road, Broadwell Hayes and the Maudlins, Serpentine Road.
