Lights will finally be installed at a North Liverpool park before Christmas after months of campaigning.
After concerns were raised about safe routes and a lack of lighting at Everton Park, the ECHO has been told Liverpool Council will begin work installing fittings “on or before December 12.” Cllr Jane Corbett, Everton ward member and Deputy Mayor of Liverpool, said further safety measures including CCTV cameras had been a success already.
Conditions at Everton Park have been a sore topic for residents over the past 12 months, with the green space being blighted by anti-social behaviour throughout this year, with a burned out motorbike and graffiti were left at the Netherfield Road area of the public space. The Friends of Everton Park (FoEP) group reached out to Merseyside Police and Liverpool Council in a bid to bring the vandalism to an end.
