NEW LEISURE CENTRE

I visited the new Leisure Centre recently and its taking shape well.  Its going to be a wonderful facility replacing the current leisure centre which is in effect the old Jubilee pool.  The layout and asthetics/acoustics of the new building are wonderful set against the backdrop of the Delta Lakes.  The bus route from Swiss Valley will stop there making the brand new facility available to as many of us who can get there.

RESERVOIR NEWS

FOREST OF WALES BID

I submitted an application to NRW for the Reservoir to be considered as part of the National Forest of Wales recently.  Unfortunately on that occasion we werent successful but we have resubmitted and hope to be successful next time!

WELSH WATER

We are currently negotiating with Welsh Water to continue the pioneering community adoption agreement with Llanelli Rural Council.  This must continue so we can build on the success we've already made to the reservoir with the activities and facilities we can now find and use there, together with some great coffee.

Reservoir Volunteers!

A huge thank you to the volunteers who litter picked Lower Lliedi Reservoir, Swiss Valley on an overcast Sunday afternoon recently. 10 full bags of litter were retrieved on the day!!

It was the first outing for Friends of Swiss Valley Reservoir, our new volunteer group.  There will be more events like this that volunteers can get involved with at the reservoir.

Thanks also to Hiatus Coffee for supplying coffee and cake at the end...delicious...

Please contact me or enquiries@llanelli-rural.gov.uk if you'd like to get involved.

NEW BUS TIME TABLE

A new bus timetable which will see us receive 6 services a day (an hour and a half apart) will be starting from January 6th. It's a start and improvement on what we have.

This adds to the recent request where I asked the bus company if a bus stop could be placed by the reservoir entrance and they agreed.  A request bus stop will be introduced by the car park entrance as you go out of Swiss Valley on the A476 in due course for the 128 Llanelli-Ammanford service to allow people to visit the reservoir, making it more accessible via public transport.
