Heron’s Wing Hide Bridge Replacement Project

Project Applicants: WWT (Herons Bridge)

Anchor Programme: Sustainable Communities

Location: Llanelli

This project has addressed the urgent work needed on the Heron’s Wing Hide Bridge, a prominent visual piece that spans the Millennium Coastal Path. The original bridge was assessed by a structural engineer as ‘vulnerable to failure in the immediate future’. The bridge is now secured as a vital structure, connecting visitors to the wetlands, and its refurbishment has been key to retaining and enhancing both visitor experience, education and conservation efforts.
