Storm Franklin is continuing to cause severe disruption across the county, leaving many roads impassable and homes and businesses flooded.

A total of 20 Flood Warnings and 13 Flood Alerts have been issued by the Environment Agency as of Monday morning, instructing those living near the county’s watercourses to take action or be prepared for flooding.

Shropshire Council’s highways teams are working around the clock to close roads and car parks and make sure people who need them have sandbags to protect their homes and businesses.

Please follow our Twitter and Facebook social media accounts for full details of flooding, road closures and where to pick up sandbags.
