The call for a 7.5 tonne weight limit on the A530 Baddington Bridge near Nantwich was raised with Cheshire East Council three years ago, a National Highways report shows.
But that weight limit was only imposed two weeks ago, and Cheshire East Council has not carried out any strengthening works in the meantime.
Town councillors have backed calls for action to make Mill Street in Nantwich safer and stop it from “sinking”.
They want to impose weight limits on delivery vehicles using the road which is partly pedestrianised at the top end.
A woman driver has been charged after being arrested on the M6 in Cheshire for being more than four times over the drink driving limit.
Sarah Vazquez, 43, of Wheatfield Road in Cronton, has been charged with drink driving and drunk in charge of a child under the age of seven.

Twenty miles per hour could soon be the default speed limit on Cheshire East’s residential and urban roads.
Independent Cllr Suzie Akers Smith, the council’s walking and cycling champion, has proposed a motion to adopt the policy.
