Car park issues for stadium

I have noticed over the years that Shrewsbury often descends into deep division over planning issues, whereas Telford just goes ahead and does it and has few problems.

The latest planning issue in Shrewsbury is the car parking for the new Shrewsbury Town football stadium. How did the planners come to allow one to be built without adequate car parking?

With the stadium on the outskirts of town, it should have been obvious that most would want to go there by car.

And the club officials are no better. They should have insisted on adequate parking.

Council tax payers have to pay for the road closure and the rest of us have to put up with the inconvenience.
