Travellers on Rhuddlan Nature Reserve

Denbighshire Countryside Service has confirmed that a group of travellers has moved on to the Rhuddlan Local Nature Reserve site.

The travellers moved onto the site late on Sunday evening.

Denbighshire County Council and North Wales Police have visited the location this morning (Monday) and served notice on the travellers to vacate the site.

A spokesperson for Denbighshire County Council, said: “This is the second time in recent months that travellers have moved onto the site and it is extremely frustrating that we now have to spend valuable time and resources to persuade the travellers to vacate the location.

“Everything that is practically possible has been put in place to prevent access to the site. The area is a public open space and the National Cycle Route runs through the site and so the entrance cannot be completely blocked as access is required for cyclists, wheelchairs  and for our own vehicles to carry out maintenance work.

“If the travellers fail to move, the Council will need to assess the options available”.
