Road chaos from census
Thursday 18th June 2009, 10:36AM BST.
Motorists faced chaos on one of Shropshire’s busiest roads today while a traffic census was carried out.
Tailbacks were reported on the A5 into Shrewsbury, with one lane coned off while the Highways Agency carried out the census, and Shropshire Council carried out surveys to update its traffic model which will be an important part of the North West Relief Road’s business case.
The surveys and census will be carried out throughout the day. Martin Allard, Shropshire Council’s head of strategic highways and traffic, apologised for any inconvenience caused.
