The coastal road at Newgale is to be closed from 7 am tomorrow morning (Saturday, October 21) due to a predicted combination of a high tidal surge, large waves and gale force winds.

Pembrokeshire County Council will re-assess the condition of the road following the 8.20 am high tide and will endeavour to re-open it as soon as possible.

During the period of closure, road users are asked to use alternative routes.

The weather conditions may also affect other coastal roads with the possibility of water and debris covering road surfaces.

The council will have workmen patrolling potential problem areas along the coast tomorrow morning.

The public are also advised to stay away from coastal areas during the duration of the storm which is expected to last most of Saturday.
