Construction traffic will avoid Broseley town centre and school, developer pledges
Vehicles used by construction workers building 88 homes will not use roads near Broseley town centre and a primary school, the company behind the scheme has said.
Taylor Wimpey will move on site to start work in Broseley at the end of the month.
The developer has said it will do all it can to minimise disruption and inconvenience while building the newly named Haycop Rise, off Dark Lane.
Broseley mayor Councillor Ian Pickles said: "The main thing is to get the construction traffic to travel along Ironbridge Road and up Dark Lane to the site.
"We want the traffic to avoid the town centre. We have also asked that the traffic should not come past the Dark Lane primary school and nursery when children are being dropped off and picked up.
"The meeting we had included the head of the primary school and a governor as well as town and Shropshire councillors and reps from Taylor Wimpey and traffic officers from Shropshire Council."
Taylor Wimpey has promised to pump £400,000 into community facilities and create 41 jobs when work begins on Haycop Rise.
A sales office will be set up in April and the development will include 54 four-bedroomed houses, 25 three-bedroomed houses and eight two-bedroomed houses.
Affordable housing on the site will be made up by two three-bedroomed houses, two two-bedroomed houses and a bungalow. The site should be finished by the summer of 2017.
A spokesman for Taylor Wimpey said a construction management plan covering all aspects of site activity at Haycop Rise had been sent to Shropshire Council.
"As part of this, all construction traffic will only be permitted to access the site using an approved route," he said.
