Ludlow Town Council has now responded at length to some of the ideas contained in the draft, including considering the closure of King Street and High Street to traffic, except for market access."King Street is a vital access route into the town centre and there are no other alternative routes for vehicles," said the spokesperson.
"Ludlow is a small historic town. King Street and High Street are the arterial route into the town and closing it would destroy the economy of Ludlow." Among the ideas it supports are improving the sense of welcome outside the railway station, and improved connection between the railway station and the town centre to make it easier to navigate.Following the consultation an updated plan will be presented to Shropshire Council’s cabinet for consideration.
