Coed-y-Go West Culvert closure for parapet repairs

Coed-y- Go West Culvert – which carries a ‘C’ classified road over a tributary of the River Morda – will close for parapet repairs from 27 February to 10 March 2023 from 8am to 4pm each day.

The work will involve taking down and rebuilding of the upstream parapet and installation of concrete bags to the invert of the culvert.

To carry out the work safely it will be necessary to close the bridge to vehicular traffic.

When the bridge is closed, traffic will be diverted by a signed diversion route.

Access over the culvert for pedestrians and dismounted cyclists will remain available throughout the proposed work.

Inevitably there will be some disruption during these works, and ever effort will be made to minimise any inconvenience.

The work will be carried out by Shropshire Council’s term maintenance contractor Kier, with supervision being provided by WSP on behalf of Shropshire Council.
