The most dangerous roads and junctions in one part of Merseyside have been revealed, with one seeing two people die just weeks before Christmas.
Sefton Council revealed the list as it decided on which areas of the borough were to receive new pedestrian crossings, with the local authority ranking the 27 worst roads for safety. The list ranked which roads are the priority in the pedestrian crossing review, with factors such as the percentage of elderly pedestrians, unaccompanied children, prams/pushchairs/wheelchairs, road width and the number of pedestrian collisions in the last three years all affecting the rankings.
The three worst roads and junctions in Sefton were listed as Crosby Road South/Cambridge Road in Waterloo, Liverpool Road North/Southport Road in Maghull and The Northern Road in Crosby. One road that was listed a number of times was Lulworth Road in Southport.
