More than 70 Shropshire roads to be surface dressed

The work is due to be carried out from 22 April 2026 and will be carried out by Kier on behalf of the council.

The 72 sites identified for are located across the county and include all types of road, from urban roads to major ‘A’ and ‘B’ roads.

Dates and details of work will be available on the One Network interactive roadworks website once road space permits have been granted.

Surface dressing is a quick, efficient and cost-effective way of preventing potholes, maintaining skid-resistance and waterproofing road surfaces. It forms a major part of the council’s annual road maintenance programme and is being carried out alongside other preventative and reactive maintenance work.

David Vasmer, Shropshire Council’s Cabinet member for highways and environment, said:

“As well as improving and protecting our roads, this important programme of work plays a crucial role in helping to prevent potholes and other defects forming in the future. Pothole treatment is very much about prevention as well as cure and this is one important way that we can aim to prevent potholes forming next winter.”
