People torn over 'anti-social' bike track built in family area

People in Wallasey are torn over the success of a new bike track installed to quell anti-social behaviour by the town's Central Park.

Those who live around Wallasey Central Park have cast their verdict on a new bike pump track recently installed in a former rose garden. The track, meant for older children, was installed earlier this year and is supposed to help reduce "anti-social behaviour" that "often comes from boredom" in young people.

However since, some people who live in the area have reported feeling fearful or anxious about the tracks, especially those with younger children. Last week, a 13 year old boy was attacked and almost had his bike stolen whilst riding the track.
