The River Severn at Frankwell is forecast to reach its peak of 3.50 metres at 1.15am on Friday.

The Environment Agency has updated its flood warning for people living near to the Welsh Bridge in Shrewsbury, as river levels rise to 2.80 metres.

It comes after flood barriers were put in place in Shrewsbury on Wednesday and the large Frankwell Riverside car park was closed. The Environment Agency has urged people living in the area to act now, by moving furniture upstairs or to safety as well as personal possessions. The update reads:"Avoid using low-lying footpaths or entering areas prone to flooding. Start acting on your flood plan if you have one.

"As the Frankwell barriers have been deployed and are fully operational, we are currently not expecting protected properties in this area to be impacted."Measuring river flows at first site of the day on the River Severn at Montford as the peak approaches.
