It's not guaranteed the 2020 landslip will be repaired by the end of this year either.
The A490 Chirbury to Churchstoke road suffered a huge landslip in 2020 following a period of intense rainfall, so much so that a precipitous drop was revealed on one side of the road.
Councillor Kidd said:"I will be collecting black balloons so that Chirbury with Brompton Parish Council and I can celebrate a very sad fourth birthday if necessary next February. Shropshire Council has confirmed that the timetable has slipped and"are likely" to slip to late 2023/early 2024.A spokesman confirmed:"We are still optimistic that the remedial works can be delivered within the new 2023/2024 financial year but works are likely to slip to late 2023/early 2024."
"This work was completed in summer 2022," said the spokesman."Further delays have since been incurred whilst our term consultant has engaged with competent contractors to discuss potential solutions, understand buildability issues and physical constraints that could influence the final design solution."
