A town's one-way system first adopted 18 months ago is set to stay for good, the county council has announced.
The system in Hereford Street, Presteigne was introduced in September 2021 to help ease congestion and make it easier for pedestrians and cyclists to access local amenities.
Some minor amendments to the infrastructure will be made to improve road safety and discourage drivers unfamiliar with the road layout from inadvertently going the wrong way. These changes, suggested by the community during the trial period, will include creating a small build-out into the road at the police station end of the one-way system, and repositioning one of the signs.
The work to raise the cobbled section of the end of the street, near the library, and incorporate it into the pavement permanently is expected to take no longer than two weeks to complete. While the work takes place, the pavement will be closed but access to the shops will be maintained.
