Why the North West Road will ruin Shropshire
Event Information
About this Event
The proposed 'relief road' is put forward as a solution to traffic problems in and around Shrewsbury. Far from being a solution, the road is likely to lock in problems for decades to come; from climate damaging emissions during construction and use to habitat and water source degradation. On top of that, it is unlikely to provide the 'relief' people have been led to expect. Yet there are far better tried-&-tested solutions to improve connectivity, well-being and safety on our roads and streets.
