The work will include a series of full road closures, mainly overnight, during the next four weeks.

Work included within the scheme includes barrier repairs, carriageway repairs, road sweeping, gully cleaning and street light test and repairs as well as general tree and grass cutting.

The work is part of the council's 'Pride in our Community' investment programme, undertaken by the council's highways contractor Balfour Beatty, street cleansing contractor Idverde and lighting contractor Prysmian.

Most dual-carriageway maintenance works will be undertaken overnight under full road closures to minimise disruption.

Councillor Lee Carter, Telford & Wrekin Council's cabinet member for place said: “This investment makes good on our commitment to residents to prioritise care of our roads, cycle ways and footpaths.

"We’ve carefully planned most of the work at night to minimise disruption and it’s part of an ongoing programme to maintain high standards in our network and continue to build on the success of coming top in a national survey for highways satisfaction last year.”
