Halewood roads like 'dirt track' as thousands of homes built

Roads in one area of Merseyside have been branded a "disgrace" as temporary lights and dirty streets cause "chaos".

Work on hundreds of new homes in Halewood has started as part of Knowsley Council's 'masterplan' - with Redrow, Bellway and Miller on board to deliver the East of Halewood development. The sites are on fields off Baileys Lane and Greenbridge Lane, however, nearby residents have previously expressed their concerns over the pressures already being felt in the town.

A resident, who did not wish to be named, told the ECHO: "The state of Bailey's Lane is terrible. It's like a dirty track. It's about two inches thick with mud and no-one is cleaning it, so much so it's on the pavements too."
