THE Penrhyn Bay promenade has reopened months after a refurbishment project on the area started.

The £7.5million council project, which started in January, has seen updates to the café bar, a new pedestrian and cyclist crossing point and the installation of a disability ramp for access to the beach.

The area opposite the Beach Café Bar has had new surfacing, seating, and handrailing fitted.

Bike lock-up areas and bike pumping points have also been added to the promenade, and traffic lights have made way for a zebra crossing near the Beach Café Bar.

A Conwy County Council spokesperson said: “Penrhyn Bay promenade is now open to pedestrians and cyclists.

“There will be section still closed on the upper level opposite the Golf Club for safety around the site entrance.

“Work is continuing on building the T-shape groyne coastal defence.”
