Shropshire Council said that the crossing, which will include a new central island, will be a 'Toucan crossing', added to Oteley Road.

Toucan crossings allow both cyclists and pedestrians to cross and show a green cycle symbol and a green man.

A statement from the authority said that the crossing was required "after the police raised concerns about the safety of people leaving football matches at the Croud Meadow".
