Road Safety Works - Longden Road, Shrewsbury
13th July 2016

 

A safety scheme will be installed on Longden Road, Shrewsbury. The work aims to reduce the speed of traffic along the road and increase the safety of those who use the road, particularly those who use the adjacent school. Work is due to start on 15 August 2016 and last for three weeks.

Footway buildouts are proposed in four locations along Longden Road. Part time 20mph flashing signing will be installed on Longden Road and on Bank Farm Road. The road will be surface dressed from Stanley Lane to Roman Road and there will be changes to the existing traffic signs and road markings. The existing street lighting will also be upgraded.

When will the road be closed?

A Sunday closure (7am to 12noon) is proposed on 28 August to allow the road to be surface dressed.

A signed diversion route will be in place to accommodate this.

Access for residents will be maintained.
