Construction remains halted at a site which will provide hundreds of new homes on the edge of Maghull after planners ordered work to temporarily cease.
Persimmon Homes is behind the Summerhill Park development, which lies off Poverty Lane near the M58. Diggers arrived on site earlier this year, but work has temporarily stopped.
The ECHO understands Persimmon failed to supply the necessary details of the proposed construction route to Sefton Council.
