Members of the public are being asked for their views on potential new road options for the A487 at Newgale.

Drop-in sessions are to be held at the Duke of Edinburgh pub in the village on February 9 and 10, between 11 am and 7 pm.

The sessions are part of an ongoing consultation on the adaptation of the coastline and road system at Newgale, where the shingle bank is becoming increasingly vulnerable.

Facilitated by the Pembrokeshire Coastal Forum (PCF), the event will give people the opportunity to view a new exhibition of the shortlisted road options, comment on a specialist report and plans, and meet the engineers.

Anyone unable to attend can also access all the information and comment online on Pembrokeshire County Council’s website from February 3, at www.pembrokeshire.gov.uk/haveyoursay or obtain further information via the council’s contact centre on 01437 764551.

Following the storms of early 2014, Pembrokeshire County Council has adopted a wider approach to managing the adaptation of the local coastline, involving public participation to help shape future strategies.

The authority is taking a two pronged approach by (a) shortlisting potential new road options and (b) creating an adaptation masterplan of the wider area of Newgale.

Together with civil engineering consultants Atkins, it has used the views from previous public exhibitions to revise and shape a range of road options.

Atkins has now completed their appraisal of the road options and the ‘Newgale WelTAG Stage 1 road options appraisal report’ is available for public review.

Copies of the report will be available to view at the public drop-in sessions and it can also be accessed on the county council’s website (at the address above) from February 3.

Following events in February, a further piece of work will be carried out in early March focusing on the Adaptation Masterplan strategy where stakeholders will be invited once again to attend.

Attendees will be welcomed and introduced to the public drop-in sessions by the PCF on the hour between 11 am and 7 pm.

The deadline for comments on the online consultation is Monday, March 20.
