Clwyd West AM Darren Millar kept up the campaign for the restoration of the Victoria Pier in Colwyn Bay by hosting a Ministerial visit yesterday.
Darren Millar organised a meeting with the Assembly Government’s Deputy Minister for Regeneration and members of the Colwyn Bay Pier Pressure Group to discuss the Group’s plans for the future of the Pier.
Speaking after the meeting Darren said:
‘Many of my constituents want to see the pier restored to its former glory. For too long it has been an eyesore which has blighted the waterfront in Colwyn Bay.
‘We had a very positive meeting today and I was pleased to learn that a solution to the ownership of the pier is in the process of being developed.
‘It was interesting to hear more details about the Colwyn Bay Pier Pressure Group’s vision for the future of the pier which was outlined in the meeting.
‘I want to see us working to develop a sustainable future for the pier to maximise opportunities for employment, education, training, visitor facilities and other ventures.
‘I look forward to working with Conwy County Borough Council, the Pier Pressure Group and other interested parties to make this happen.’
