Transformation fund of £2m agreed for Burry Port Harbour
Carmarthenshire Council has agreed improvement and maintenance works totalling over £2m including a phased programme to transform and repair the harbour walls.
A silt dredge of the inner harbour costing £750k is included in the planned improvements. Historically, the harbour has always filled with silt and has to be removed every 10-20 years.
Repairs to the listed harbour walls totalling £1.94m will be phased over 5 to 10-year period. Works will be carried out on a priority basis with officers also exploring grant opportunities for funding.
