Shrewsbury's North West Relief Road should cross the River Severn on top of a flood prevention barrier, with an excavated reservoir and silt settlement sump upstream.

Then Shropshire County Council and Shrewsbury & Atcham Borough Council would not have to fiddle, tinker and pose with traffic congestion surveys, pollution surveys, and roundabouts.

Nor would they need a review of all traffic lights, the creation of a second gyratory system, congestion charging, relocation of the fire station, new traffic lights on Dobbies roundabout and a flood prevention barrier for Coleham Head.
