As a resident of the loop, Alex cares passionately about creating a balance between residents, businesses, and visitors.

He has campaigned for proposals to cut down through traffic alongside the improvements to public transport and active travel needed to act as an incentive to use other modes of transport.

Affordable housing in Shrewsbury is sorely lacking, with one and two bed properties of all price brackets increasingly hard to come by. Development in the loop, if done right, could create a good solution and encourage people with the skills we need to live in Shrewsbury.

Alex has also taken an active interest in the arts and cultural importance of town, particularly regarding heritage buildings like Rowley's House which need action.
