Preparatory work has started on bringing improvements to the area to the front of Shrewsbury railway station.
Work that began at 8am on Monday with contractors erecting barriers and preparing to dig up the pavements is not likely to impact on traffic movement, Shropshire Council said.The rest of the project is set to be carried out in phases.
The project will see changes to the the gyratory next to Shrewsbury railway station, connecting Castle Gates , Chester Street , Smithfield Road and Cross Street , along with areas to the north and south. Two temporary compounds will be in place for the duration of the work. One will be based in the bus layover area in Raven Meadows, opposite Shrewsbury Bus Station, and one will be based in Frankwell Main car park.
“The town centre will very much be open for business during the work and we encourage people to continue visiting the town, but to consider using alternative routes if they can, or to use alternative modes of travel – including walking, cycling, public transport and park and ride.”
