The proposals include importing about one million tonnes of sand to protect the seawall and a new, extended rock groyne.

At the same time, the council is looking at widening the promenade to make more space for pedestrians and cyclists, and providing new lighting, seating, shelters and recreation options.

Greg Robbins, Conwy cabinet member for environment and transportation, said: “The main focus is on improving coastal defences with new rock defences and imported sand. But this is also an opportunity to increase the safety and enjoyment of the promenade and public spaces, continuing the improvements already made at Colwyn Bay along the coast.”

Residents can find out more about the proposals and view the plans online here and at Colwyn Bay Library.

Responses should be submitted by Monday, October 10.
