The Mayor gave them a full update on developments since the present local authority started its term of office and the difficulties they have faced in trying to ensure a proper shuttle service.
It was agreed that efforts should be made to add another two shuttles at night and that the umbrellas and sunbeds be removed from in front of the Serbian Memorial.
