Height barrier reinstatement
Cyngor Gwynedd has confirmed that the height barrier at Beach Road East car park in Hirael Bay, Bangor (Gwynedd, Wales) will be restored after remaining construction work is completed. The barrier was removed when the car park was used as a construction site for coastal defence works and Dŵr Cymru works; the entrance was widened and the layout changed. The new height barrier will be installed in the coming weeks.
Additional measures
Alongside the barrier's return, CCTV cameras, new bins, warning signs and road markings will be installed. The council is also urging drivers to park responsibly and respectfully. The council has allocated designated spaces for overnight parking for motorhomes under the Arosfan programme.
Local reaction
Readers of North Wales Live are divided: some are unhappy about motorhomes and camper vans, while commentators debate whether to attract such vehicles or move them on.
