Building work on hundreds of new homes in a "quiet" Merseyside community has caused huge disruption, local residents say.
Work has already begun on the construction of 1,305 new homes in Halewood as part of Knowsley Council's ' masterplan ' with Redrow, Bellway and Miller on board. The sites are on fields off Baileys Lane and Greenbridge Lane, however, nearby residents have previously expressed their concerns over the pressures already being felt in the town.
There were concerns services were "not up to scratch" as the housing developments are set to bring in hundreds more families to the town. But now, roadworks are being said to be "wreaking havoc", especially in the Lower Road and Lower Close area and Rawlinson Crescent where "chaos is constant", as well as Baileys Lane.
