Resurfacing work is to be carried out on the A529 Adderley Road at Market Drayton from January 13 to 17.
The work will be carried out to improve the approaches to the Adderley Road zebra crossing, from the Prospect Road mini-roundabout to the stone railway bridge.
It’s part of the Government-funded A529 Safer Roads Fund scheme that aims to improve safety on the A529 between Hinstock and Audlem.
Work will take place from 9.30am to 4pm each day and the road will be closed during this time.
During the closures a signed diversion will be in place and access/egress for properties and businesses within the closure will be maintained when safe to do so.
The 14.47-mile diversion points drivers towards Hinstock and the A53.
Depending on their vehicle type, road users may be able to choose an alternative diversion route.
People are also being asked not to park on the road during the day whilst the work is in progress.
All planned roadworks are subject to change due to weather conditions or unforeseen circumstances - and Shropshire Council will display any changes at on the yellow advanced warning signs and online at one.network
During the work, access to the works area will be restricted to local businesses or residents who live within the closure, pedestrians, dismounted cyclists and equestrians, and emergency vehicles.
