The former ambulance station next to Shirehall in Abbey Foregate is being transformed into shops and housing, with the supermarket at its centre.

Next Friday the mayor of Shrewsbury will be at the site for a ribbon-cutting ceremony to mark the opening of the store.

The Abbey Foregate store will be Sainsbury's third in Shrewsbury, adding to its full-scale supermarket at Meole Brace retail park and another local store in Whitecroft Road in Sutton Park.

Tesco is soon to cut the ribbon on its own new metro-style store in Pride Hill in the centre of Shrewsbury.
