Temporary closure of car park at Christchurch Viewpoint
Posted on Friday 10th August 2018
Following the departure of a group of Travellers this week Newport City Council checked the area of the Viewpoint at Christchurch which was occupied and removed rubbish that had been left.
It has now come to our attention that members of the public and their pet dogs have discovered areas of the site that have been used as a toilet and as a result a chemical cleanse of the area will have to be undertaken.
This will be carried out as soon as possible as an external cleansing company will have to be brought in to do the work.
To safeguard the public and their dogs we will be locking the car park this weekend to prevent access to the affected area.
The council does realise that this is further inconvenience for those wishing to use the site however would ask that members of the public are understanding about the need to close the site temporarily, to enable us to sort out this issue.
