The controversial North West Relief Road scheme can move to the next stage following the narrowest of committee votes.

Members of Shropshire Council's Northern Planning Committee voted by six votes to five today to give a set of some 63 planning conditions for the Shrewsbury North West Relief Road the go-ahead.

The principle of building the road was approved in October last year when the committee gave its planning permission. But they asked for the conditions, which are normally resolved behind the scenes, to come back to the committee for approval. A council officer told the committee that despite the objection they can"move forward" with the plan as all matters have been covered.
