Kilmac, the contractors, have kept to the contract period, despite contending with many periods of poor weather and a narrow period of time to work on the beach between the tides.
The picture shows the row of new railings going up on the upgraded section of the walkway which begins just beyond the lifebuoy ring.
Working from the Douglas Terrace end, gradually the extended width of the pathway is being opened up as the safety railings are erected. I am advised however that there may be one further period of closure when tarmac is put down over the concrete along the full length and breadth of the upgraded section of the pathway.
I am sure walkers, dog walkers and cyclists will all appreciate the additional width of the upgraded path when it is completed in the next couple of weeks.
