IN PICTURES: See the latest Shrewsbury developments after Frankwell Bridge steps are replaced
These pictures show the latest progress on plans to revamp Shrewsbury's Riverside.
Shropshire Council has been progressing phase one of its redevelopment project, which will see a new park being created on the site of the former Riverside Shopping Centre.
In recent days the longstanding steps to the Frankwell Footbridge have been removed, with fresh steps created on the other side of the bridge.
The council has said that the park, called Riverside Gardens, is due to open in Autumn next year.
The shots show the current work ongoing at the site.
Earlier this month Shropshire Council said: "Work started earlier this week to demolish the Frankwell Bridge steps in Shrewsbury as part of our exciting Riverside Gardens project.
"The steps have now gone, and access off the bridge is now via a new temporary ramp.
"The old steps will eventually be replaced by a lift, ready for when the park is expected to open in autumn 2026.
"Riverside Gardens, which is being paid for as part of £18.7 million Levelling Up funding from the government, will offer green spaces, activity areas for families, accessible facilities, and a dedicated events area—creating a welcoming destination for all."
