NEWPORT, R.I. (WPRI) – One of Rhode Island’s most popular attractions is still in need of repairs following hurricane Sandy.

The Newport Cliff walk that runs along several mansions in Newport needs an estimated eight million dollars in repairs to fix Sandy damage.

The section of walkway is south of the Breakers Mansion on Bellevue Ave.

No word on where the funding will come from to fix the damaged section.
