Clun No2 Bridge – which carries an unclassified road over a tributary of the river Clun – will be closed from February 24 to March 5.
The work involves removal of vegetation from the structure, general repointing, and taking down and rebuilding the upstream parapet.
To carry out the proposed work safely it will be necessary to close the bridge to vehicular traffic, 24 hours a day.

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