Groups move as youth centre hit by lorry still shut

Groups that meet at a youth centre that was hit by a lorry are being moved to a new location.

One of the walls at the centre in Lower Galdeford Road in Ludlow was badly damaged in the crash, which also saw the lorry collide with parked vehicles and a railway bridge, on 28 April.

Shropshire Council said it had commissioned a structural report to assess the extent of the damage.

The authority also said groups affected were moving the Helena Lane Community Centre, with the first sessions due to start again on 19 May.

West Mercia Police said no-one was injured in the collision and no arrests had been made.

The council now hopes to also relocate evening sessions to Helena Lane, but it is waiting for confirmation.
