A councillor who has campaigned for repairs to a road after a landslip almost three years ago says she is delighted the work is to be carried out.
Council Heather Kidd, Shropshire Councillor for Chirbury and Worthen Division, says she is pleased that the local authority says the workThe landslip in February 2020 made one lane of the road from Chirbury to Churchstoke unusable with temporary traffic lights controlling vehicles.Heather said: “I’m absolutely delighted that the council are going to address this problem. It's not as if this landslip occurred on a minor road.
“I have been putting pressure on the council, almost from day one on this one. Since the landslip in February 2020 we have had a number of studies and some lengthy discussions but little action on an actual repair. All we have had is a set of battery traffic lights, which have cost the taxpayer a significant amount, and then the permanent temporary set which uses mains electricity.
“Now at long last, we have a promise of action. Shropshire Council is looking to undertake the repair during the period of April to September 2023. "Given the complexity of the job this will probably mean the closure of the road for some of that period. The important thing is we get a fully functioning road back by the end of the summer and no more smashed-up cones and plastic barriers.”
