Council U-turn over Shrewsbury park and ride closure
The park and ride was due to close in November
Shropshire Council has performed a U-turn over plans to suspend a Shrewsbury park and ride service.
The Meole Brace Park & Ride in Shrewsbury was scheduled to close permanently in November this year, so funds could be redirected to support other bus services in the county.
But the Liberal Democrat administration has said it has now identified funding for a temporary extension to the service.
A spokesperson for the Liberal Democrats said that the extension will give the council more time to develop a sustainable long-term plan for park and ride service in Shrewsbury.
