However, as part of wider changes to local government in Shropshire, the town was <a href="/wiki/Civil_parish" title="Civil parish">parished</a> on 13 May 2008, with a single parish created covering the entire town and previously unparished area. At the time of creation, Shrewsbury was the <a href="/wiki/List_of_the_most_populous_civil_parishes_in_England" title="List of the most populous civil parishes in England">second-most populous civil parish</a> in England, though further creations of large town councils mean it is now the fourth. The area of the parish is 3,799 hectares (9,390 acres). The town council first convened on 1 April 2009 and its chair is the mayor of Shrewsbury. For the interim period before the first elections, the existing county councillors who represented electoral divisions covering Shrewsbury were the town councillors. On 4 June 2009, the first election was held to the town council, with councillors elected from 17 single-member wards coterminous with <a href="/wiki/Shropshire_Council" title="Shropshire Council">Shropshire Council</a> electoral divisions. The political make-up of the town council, as of the <a href="/wiki/2021_Shropshire_Council_election" title="2021 Shropshire Council election">2021 local elections</a>, sees Labour as the largest party with 7 seats, the Liberal Democrats with 6, the Conservatives with 2 and the Green Party with 2. The town council was based at the Guildhall on Frankwell Quay, a facility which had originally been built in 2004 as the headquarters of Shrewsbury and Atcham Borough Council; however the town council moved to Riggs Hall in 2017.<a href="#cite_note-109">[106]</a> Riggs Hall is one of the original buildings on the former site of Shrewsbury School on Castle Gates.<a href="#cite_note-110">[107]</a> Since 2023, the town council have their offices at Livesey House, on St John's Hill and the council itself meets in the Shirehall.<a href="#cite_note-111">[108]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="Coat_of_arms">Coat of arms</h4>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Shrewsbury&action=edit&section=16" title="Edit section: Coat of arms">edit</a>]</div> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Coat_of_arms_of_Shrewsbury.png" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/f/f1/Coat_of_arms_of_Shrewsbury.png/170px-Coat_of_arms_of_Shrewsbury.png" decoding="async" width="170" height="198" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/f/f1/Coat_of_arms_of_Shrewsbury.png/255px-Coat_of_arms_of_Shrewsbury.png 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/f/f1/Coat_of_arms_of_Shrewsbury.png/340px-Coat_of_arms_of_Shrewsbury.png 2x" data-file-width="2042" data-file-height="2383" /></a><figcaption>Coat of arms</figcaption></figure> The coat of arms of the former Shrewsbury Borough Council and now of the Town Council, depicts three loggerheads (leopards), with the motto Floreat Salopia, a Latin phrase that can be translated to "May Shrewsbury Flourish".<a href="#cite_note-112">[109]</a><a href="#cite_note-113">[110]</a> The coat of arms of the (now abolished) Shrewsbury and Atcham Borough Council was Shrewsbury's shield with the addition of <a href="/wiki/Atcham" title="Atcham">Atcham</a> Bridge running above the leopards.

The A5064 is a short, one mile (1.6 km) stretch of road to the south-east of the town centre, called London Road. Additionally, the <a href="/wiki/A5124_road" class="mw-redirect" title="A5124 road">A5124</a>, the most recent bypass, was completed in 1998 and runs across the northern edge of the town at Battlefield (connecting the A49/A53 to the A528), though it did exist before as Harlescott Lane (which has since become unclassified).
