People are asked not to park on the road during the day whilst the work is in progress.

Shropshire Council said that during the closures, a signed diversion will be place and access to properties and businesses within the closure will be maintained when safe to do so.

The diversion is pointing drivers along Innage Lane, The Hookfield, Victoria Road and past Bridgnorth Library.

But the authority has said road users may be able to choose an alternative route depending on their vehicle type.

Any changes will be displayed on yellow advanced warning signs and online at one.network.
