Clun Highways and Traffic Working Group (CHTWG) is encouraging people who live in the town to have their say on a number of proposed improvements.

The group has been working together over the last few months to develop a package of measures in the town that address road drainage and maintenance, and improve the management of the road space and the way in which people and transport move around within it.

It is hoped that these measures will help to relive concerns about congestion, road safety and an accumulation of traffic management measures such as roadsigns and lines over the years, making the historic town look cluttered.

The consultation will open online on Monday 28 March 2022 and will remain open until Wednesday 13 April 2022. The consultation will be at https://www.pinpointcloud.co.uk/clun , when it goes live next week.

Those unable to view the proposals online will be able to see them at Clun Memorial Hall on Tuesday 29 March 2022 from 2pm. At 6pm there will be a presentation, and those attending will be able to have their questions answered virtually by the technical team.

Dean Carroll, Shropshire Council’s Cabinet member for physical infrastructure, said: “We’re really excited to show you what we’ve been working on and to hear your thoughts.

“Clun is a beautiful town and it’s important that we get the look and feel right, while making sure that it’s safe for people walking and travelling around or through it.”

Nigel Hartin, local Shropshire Councillor for Clun, said: “A lot of work over the last couple of years by the Clun Traffic Group, working with Shropshire Council, has gone into getting improvements which, we hope, will benefit all those who live, work and travel into and out of the town: and we would really value wider community involvement through this consultation, so that we can be confident we’ve got it right.”
