EXISTING ORDER FAILS TO CURB 'DANGEROUS AND INCONSIDERATE' DRIVERS

Beauty spot parking ban to be extended

THE Welsh Government has taken action over a problem caused by visitors to an Eryri beauty spot.

Llyn Ogwen is one of the honeypot sites of North Wales; a key starting point for some of the finest walks and scrambles in Eryri National Park.

But this creates problems in the area due to the sheer number of visitors arriving by car and the limited parking options due to the topography of the area.

This has seen people parking at the roadside, often on both sides of the A5 near the lake, causing issues for passing traffic and pedestrians.

Two years ago a road order was introduced.
