Notice is hereby given that Shropshire Council, in exercise of their powers under Section 23 of the Road Traffic Regulation Act 1984, and after consultation with the Chief Officer of Police, propose to establish the following traffic calming measures on Church Street, Bishop's Castle. These measures will improve pedestrian movements and connectivity in the town centre, while enacting a traffic calming provision. The raised table will slow the travelling speeds of any approaching motorised vehicles.
A flat-top road hump will be constructed at the following location: outside property number 30a, Church Street, Bishop's Castle. It will commence from a point 6 metres in a northerly direction from the new Give Way markings at the junction with B4385 Church Street/B4385 Station Street/U6147 Union Street, and extend for a total length of 6-metres, concluding at a point 12-metres in a northerly direction from the new Give Way markings at the junction with B4385 Church Street/B4385 Station Street/U6147 Union Street.

The introduction of waiting restrictions along Curriers Lane and its junctions with Barn Road and Greenfield Crescent will provide unrestricted access along the road increasing visibility for all road users including pedestrians, cyclists and motorists, reduce congestion and improve air quality.
The parking restrictions are intended to provide junction protection, deter commuter parking and ensure emergency vehicle access.
