Work begins this week on a major revamp of Lark Lane, which will include the removal of some widely-disliked orange bollards.
The popular Aigburth street, known for its bars, restaurants and independent shops, had rows of bollards installed in the summer of 2020 as the council looked to facilitate more outdoor hospitality space during the covid pandemic. The move also saw the lane changed to a one-way system for traffic in a bid to make it more pedestrian-friendly.
While aspects of the council's work were welcomed, the orange bollards have been repeatedly criticised by those living, working and visiting the famous foody street. Some retailers have even placed signs in their windows complaining about them.
