Colwyn Bay's Victoria Pier to be dismantled

Work to dismantle Colwyn Bay's Victoria Pier is to begin in January and is expected to take around 3 months.

Conwy County Borough Council has given the green light to dismantle the Pier as councillors agreed to implement new planning permission.

After the meeting, Council Chairman, Cllr Brian Cossey said:

Colwyn Victoria Pier Trust is developing proposals and funding applications for the future restoration and re-creation of a more 'substantial, self-sufficient' pier.

Mark Roberts from Colwyn Victoria Pier Trust, said:

At a Cabinet meeting (after Council), Cabinet Members agreed to issue the contract for the dismantling work.
