A second trial for the part-pedestrianisation of Shrewsbury town centre will be presented to Shropshire Council's Cabinet in October 2021 for consideration.
Under the plans to be presented to Cabinet, Milk Street will be closed on Saturdays and Sundays to all traffic from 11am – 5pm, and The Square will be closed to all traffic every day from 11am to 5pm.
Wyle Cop (uphill), High Street and Shoplatch will be closed to all traffic on Saturdays and Sundays from 11am to 5pm.
The intended dates for these closures (subject to Cabinet approval) will be from Monday 25 October 2021 until the end of January 2022.
The closures – and related traffic information – will be advertised using the new Variable Message Signs that are now in place in and around the town to provide information to our residents, visitors and businesses. Additional parking provision for people with disabilities will be provided during the trial.
It is anticipated that other trials may also take place in the near future, including an ‘Access Only’/ Low Traffic Neighbourhood scheme for Town Walls.
