🌧️ Concerned about the B4318 flooding again? You’re not alone! Over 500 people have already signed a petition urging the Welsh Government to step in and find a lasting solution to the persistent flooding issues on the road leading to Tenby. 🚧
Gumfreston, a scenic spot in Pembrokeshire, faces frequent floods that clog up the vital B4318 route, impacting residents, businesses, and emergency services. Local County Councillor Rhys Jordan is spearheading efforts to tackle the issue after highlighting that surface water runoff and tidal influences make local solutions insufficient.
In an urgent call to action, the petition asks for national leadership and cooperation from relevant bodies to manage water, river, and tidal impacts effectively. 🏞️ A sustainable approach is sought to protect access to the lovely coastal town and curb the disruptions from more frequent severe weather, thanks to climate change.
What makes the current situation even trickier? Unpredictable communication about road closures has left locals in the dark, risking safety, and causing inconvenience. Is it time for a more dynamic alert system? 🤔 Cllr Jordan has pushed concerns to the council, describing it as “probably the most-closed road in the county” with “the poorest communication.”
The petition remains open until January 31, aiming for more signatures to ensure government attention. 🖊️ Join the conversation and share your thoughts. Let’s bring about change for a safer and community-friendly road network!
