Footpath safety concern

Reported via mobile in the Other Highways issue category anonymously at 10:24, Saturday 5 July 2025

Sent to Shropshire Council less than a minute later. Council ref: 14180206.

The newly installed ‘picket gates’ are in the wrong location and increase the likelihood of a child fatality. The picket gates give a false visual impression for drivers heading towards Shrewsbury, that they are leaving the residential area, when infact there is still one more property and a length of footpath used regularly by children. These works directly increase the likelihood of a child fatality. These gates should be moved to include the whole of the residential area and roadside footpath extents.
