New pictures have shown the inside of a "scary" sinkhole that swallowed a section of busy road.
Merseyside Police received a call at around 2.20pm on Monday, July 4, reporting a large sinkhole had opened up on Beech Street near the junction of Holly Road in Kensington. Once officers arrived they found the hole, which takes up around half of the road, and placed a cordon around it.
Liverpool City Council and United Utilities were then called to take over responsibility. Diversions were quickly put into place by Liverpool Council and traffic was coping well when out ECHO reporter was at the scene.
