Clun Bridge to close for essential maintenance work

Clun Bridge to close for essential maintenance work

Clun Bridge is set to close from 26 to 29 May [2026] for essential maintenance.

The work will involve taking down and rebuilding a section of the upstream left parapet, resetting displaced copings and general pointing work.

To carry out the work safely the bridge will be closed to vehicular traffic from 9.30am to 4pm each day.

When the road is closed, traffic will be diverted by a signed diversion route. For more information, please visit https://one.network

Access over the bridge for pedestrians and dismounted cyclists will remain available throughout the works and access to frontages will be maintained up to the bridge closure.

Inevitably there will be some disruption during the work but every effort will be made to minimise inconvenience.

The work will be carried out by Shropshire Council's contractor Kier, with supervision being provided by WSP on behalf of Shropshire Council.

To inform the public of the proposals, advance notice signs will be erected at the bridge and an information letter delivered to local properties.
