More than 60 stretches of road across Shropshire are to be temporarily closed during the spring and summer while they are treated to prevent potholes in the winter months.
Around 66 roads in the county are to be 'dressed' by Shropshire Council
It involves applying and rolling aggregate ‘chippings’ onto a bitumen binder to seal the surface, improve surface texture and prolong the life of the road. Most of the road closures will only be required for a few hours for the dressing operation, which will be carried out between May and July, and are"unlikely to be of more than one day in duration".
