Brockton Way, one of the main routes into Telford will also be closing for repairs.

The northbound carriageway is closed until tomorrow, when the work is due to move to the southbound carriageway. The work is expected to be finished by Friday.

A temporary parking ban will be introduced on the west side of Bridgnorth High Street between Whitburn Street and Northgate on Saturdays between 6.30am and 6pm until December 20. The restrictions are to ensure social distancing as a result of the coronavirus outbreak.
