When complete, the £12 million relief road will provide an alternative route to the existing A4010 and will connect the newly expanded area with the town.
After a successful bid by the council, the first phase of the new relief road is being supported by funds from Homes England.
The full project will be delivered in three phases, and this particular consultation is on the design of the first phase of the relief road.
The three-week public consultation will run from 19 November until 12 December.

Proposals include:
- Constructing a new road section and widening an 800m stretch of road to enable two-way traffic
- Building a new railway bridge on Summerleys Road and improving the current one-way traffic flows under the existing bridge
- Installing a new traffic light-controlled junction at Summerleys Road, Station Road, Station Approach and new link road connecting to Picts Lane.
- A new cycleway/footway to improve access for pedestrians and cyclists
- Improvements to the existing waterways including measures to counter the impacts of climate change and potential flooding by providing additional surface water storage
- An increase to biodiversity, adding new grassland, woodland, shrubs, hedgerows and trees, enhancing and expanding existing plant and wildlife habitats.
Subject to planning approval and land acquisition, construction on site is proposed to start from Autumn 2023 with completion planned for Summer 2025.
