"..volunteers from Holyhead were called out at 10.09pm after paramedics discovered there was no vehicle access to the scene of the accident.
.."

“The casualty was then transferred aboard the RNLI lifeboat and taken to awaiting paramedic at the lifeboat station and then driven by ambulance to hospital."

Lets see what happens next. Will they re-think and remove the barriers or stop ALL access?

Going by Stena`s past record I have a feeling it`ll be closed for everyone, that will be the easiest way for them.

Do we know if the man (and his dog) is OK?

Seeing as said man and dog have prompted Stena to take the decision to lock the breakwater in the future, who gives a s***?

Certainly not the hundreds if not thousands of anglers who will now suffer especially juniors and disabled anglers who fished the breaky for the easy access

They have sealed it off? I only ask as it would seem the more worse off he is, the more likely, (it seems) that they would restrict access.

If Stenna have shut it off, I really hope its just a short term measure for the sakes of all those who rely on its use.

Been felled by man flu and not up to fishing but in need of fresh air headed to the Breakwater today to see what the barrier looks like







Seems there is provision for emergency access now, via a key holder though



Fresh air achieved in buckets.
Access on foot is still possible, though it wouldn't have been wise to stroll along it today!
