Footpaths throughout Carmarthenshire are having a makeover.
Work is well underway improving over 20kms of footpaths across the country as part of The Rights of Way Improvement Plan Funding Programme.
Some £55k of works will make paths more accessible to walkers and will include new signage, bridging and surfacing with links to the Wales Coast path in Llangain.
The Welsh Government project is managed by Natural Resources Wales and implemented by Carmarthenshire Council’s countryside team.
The council’s executive board member for leisure, Cllr Meryl Gravell said: “These works enhance our rights of way network and make it more accessible for the public to explore our beautiful countryside.”
The project has also included the revision and updating of 5 County Walk leaflets covering Llwynywormwood, Llansteffan, Drefach Velindre, Cwmdu and Llandovery.
These are available online now to view or download at http://www.discovercarmarthenshire.com/active/walking-routes.html with hard copies being available at tourist information centres shortly.
