It looks like it will be March 2022 before a planning application will be submitted by Shropshire Council.
It is believed that there are still issues concerning the Environment Agency and possiblySevern Trent.

The North West Road has had some changes to the planning application. The original reference remains - 21/00924/EIA.
We do not think that the changes address numerous concerns from Shrewsbury FoE and many other groups.
