A dad urged Liverpool Council to make changes to all schools to improve road safety for children.
Hugh Sheridan said while he was pleased the local authority had resolved to upgrade provisions near to Gilmour Infants and Junior schools in Garston, he hoped the city council would implement similar improvements across Liverpool. Mr Sheridan was “angry and frustrated” that efforts had not yet been made to make crossing safer outside his son Jacob’s school after a near miss in October.
Mr Sheridan said he feared that following the tragic death of Charlie Lowe, 10, in Walton earlier this week, more children could die if measures were not improved. In response, Liverpool Council said it had identified a series of works it could implement in a two phased approach in South Liverpool from this Spring.
