A458 Welshpool Road in Shrewsbury to be resurfaced
The A458 Welshpool Road in Shrewsbury is to be resurfaced from 14 October to 1 November 2024 as part of Shropshire Council’s annual resurfacing programme.
Work will be carried out from the Clayton Way roundabout to the A5 – and has been co-ordinated/aligned with work being carried out for nearby housing or other developments, and work by utilities companies.
During the work the road will be closed from 9.30am to 4pme each day and a signed diversion will be in place, along the B4386. Depending on vehicle type drivers may be able to use an alternative route.
Access to properties and businesses within the closure will be maintained when safe to do so and access to the park and ride will be maintained at all times. Where safe and practicable to do so, buses and emergency vehicles will be allowed through.
More information can be found on the One Network interactive roadworks website. Search using reference 34701164.
The work will be delivered in two key phases:
Phase 1 – from roundabout at Clayton Way to Little Oxon Lane. Access will be maintained to to Shelton Gardens, Leighton Park and Racecourse Lane.
Phase 2 – switchover at Little Oxon Lane junction to the A5 roundabout. Access to Shepherds Lane and Calcott Lane will be maintained from Holyhead Road. For access to Bligny Crescent please approach the gatemen and access will be provided.
Note: the actual ‘hard closure’ points may be adjusted on site to minimise disruption.
