The trial of a controversial road scheme in L8 is to be extended to allow for better community engagement over the future of the project.
Changes to the road layout at Kingsley Road had been met with a mixed reception by residents following a lengthy trial period. During a meeting of Liverpool Council’s highways and public spaces representations committee last month, Cllr Lucille Harvey told members “public trust had been damaged” over how the authority had handled the scheme.
Following a site visit by committee members, and a follow-up public meeting, it has been agreed the existing trial to allow for further engagement with Kingsley Road residents and a permanent solution can be worked out. Officers and councillors visited the scheme earlier this month to assess its viability.
