Church Preen Primary School – 20mph speed limit
The introduction of a 20mph speed limit on the roads in the vicinity of Church Preen Primary School to improve the safety of schoolchildren.
Long Lane, Craven Arms - experimental parking restrictions
Proposal
This order has been made in response to safety concerns related to Shropshire Council by Network Rail. Vehicles parked on the length of Long Lane specified in the order are causing HGVs, and other traffic, to back up and park on the level crossing between the barriers, an obvious and serious safety hazard.
THE SHROPSHIRE COUNCIL (LONG LANE, CRAVEN ARMS) (EXPERIMENTAL PARKING RESTRICTIONS) ORDER 2014
On 4 June 2014 Shropshire Council made the following experimental traffic order under Sections 9 and 10 of the Road Traffic Regulation Act 1984:
When this order comes into effect on 13 June 2014, 'No waiting or loading at any time' restrictions will be placed on both sides of Long Lane, Craven Arms between its junction with the A49 and the railway level crossing.
This order will operate for a period of up to eighteen months, and the council will be considering in due course whether its provisions should continue in force indefinitely.

A copy of the order, a relevant plan, and a statement of the council's reasons for making the order, may be examined during normal office hours at the Shirehall, Abbey Foregate, Shrewsbury, and at Craven Arms Library, School Road, Craven Arms. Alternatively they may be viewed at:

If you wish to question the validity of the order, or of any of its provisions, on the grounds that they are not within the powers conferred by the Road Traffic Regulation Act 1984, or that any requirement of the act or of any instrument made under it has not been complied with in relation to the order you may, within six weeks from 4 June 2014, apply for the purpose to the High Court.
