The move comes following an increase in numbers using the prom as the weather has become finer.

In an increased effort to combat the spread of Covid-19, the city council has erected signage along the prom to remind people to keep two metres distance between each other.

The local authority says it is committed to keeping public amenities open, however, this will only be possible if people comply with the guidelines from the Department of Health.
