PARK and ride services will be in operation for the Shrewsbury Flower Show this week.

The show takes place on August 11 and 12, with drivers advised to use one of the park and ride sites by following the “AA – Flower Show” directional signs. 

Accessible buses will operate every 12 minutes throughout the day on both days, and will drop passengers off at the eastern side of the ground, near to the entrances at the main gate or Welsh Bridge Gate.

Return services will operate throughout both days, including an evening service. Tickets are £2 or £1 for concessionary pass holders.

After the fireworks finale at 10.15pm the park and ride services will run from dedicated pick-up spots to return visitors to their vehicles.

Oxon terminus is at Claremont Hill, near St Austin’s Friars junction, Meole Brace terminus is at Barker Street, outside Lunts Pharmacy, and Harlescott terminus is at Bellstone, outside The Wrekin Housing Trust. 

Local Arriva bus services 24, 11, 27, and 1 (Monkmoor) will also be providing services from designated terminus points along Claremont Street after the fireworks.
