South Shropshire MP Philip Dunne says he has raised the issue of the poor road surface at the junction over the bridge between Tenbury and Burford.
The MP says Shropshire Council has confirmed that the poor road surface at the Swan Garage on Teme Street is now a part of its Capital Surfacing Scheme and will be completed in January 2024.
Mr Dunne said: “I raised this issue on behalf on local residents, so I am pleased Shropshire Council are acting to fix the poor state of the road at the Swan Garage junction.
"It receives a significant amount of traffic, and the road surface will not have been improved by recent weather. I look forward to seeing these works completed in January next year.”
