The closure is for Severn Trent to carry out work
A major route into Shrewsbury’s town centre will be closed for several nights.
Shropshire Council has confirmed that Seven Trent Water will be carrying out work on the Frankwell Roundabout in the town.
The work will require a closure for traffic heading into Shrewsbury’s town centre.
The closure will be in place from 11pm to 6am each night, and with run from September 30 to October 7 - although it will be lifted for the Friday and Saturday evenings.
A statement from the council said: “An overnight one-way road closure will be in place on Frankwell in Shrewsbury from September 30 to October 7, while Severn Trent Water carries out CCTV surveys and cleansing of their sewerage network.
“The closure will prevent traffic from travelling into the town centre from the Frankwell Roundabout and will only be in place from 11pm to 6am each night - with no work being carried out on Friday or Saturday nights.
“During the work, access will be maintained to affected residential properties and businesses, and a signed diversion route will be in place.”
