A Multihog treating potholes in south Shropshire
Shropshire Council’s two Multihog road planer machines will be tackling potholes on roads across Shropshire in the coming weeks.
The Multevo Multihog planes off the road surface to enable a squared-off hole to be filled by a following gang. It’s quicker than having to saw-cut and break-out the defective road by hand – tackling potholes and other defects more quickly and effectively.
From 13 October to 4 November [2025] the Multihogs and their crews are set to treat the following roads.
Multihog 1
- Monday 13 to Monday 20 October – Trefonen Road, Morda
- Tuesday 14 October – Racecourse Drive junction to Church Lane, Bridgnorth
- Wednesday 15 October – Faraday Drive, Bridgnorth
- Friday 24 to Monday 27 October – A5191 Belle Vue Road, Shrewsbury
- Tuesday 28 October – A5191 Hereford Road, Shrewsbury
- Wednesday 29 to Thursday 30 October – Hazelwells Road, Highley
- Friday 31 October to Tuesday 4 November – B4367 Church Road, Clungunford
Multihog 2
- Monday 13th October to Monday 20th October – Trefonen Road, Morda
- Thursday 23rd October to Tuesday 4th November – B4376 Much Wenlock to Broseley
Work is carried out on weekdays only, between 9.30am and 4pm.
Each Multihog can treat 9,000m² of road each month, reduces the likelihood of potholes forming in the short-to-medium term, and cuts down on the need for road closures.
