Fly tipped rubbish, 26th February

Mon, 26 Feb 2024 10:10:27 +0000
53.534654 -3.04142

Fly tipped bin bags, garden rubbish, children’s toys, plastic slide, various other items of rubbish. The location is opposite the Microlight gates. I’ll be reporting this via Sefton’s website too as the Council will ignore Fix my Street notifications and insist on separate reporting possibly hoping that most people won’t bother making an extra report on their website which is awkward to navigate.

There are no central marking on this very busy section of road. Heavy vehicles have rubbed off the markings. Also there is a lot of mud in the gutters which makes motorists move more to the centre of the road. Have seen many near misses on this road.

Vehicles from the adjacent houses park within 4 feet of the junction making it impossible for vehicles leaving village way and turning either left or right into school road/Village way to see any oncoming traffic. This is very dangerous and I shall send a copy of this complaint to the Hightown Parish Council to be available in case of an accident.

Dangerous Footpath, 13th October

Fri, 13 Oct 2023 11:31:53 +0100
53.544723 -3.049993

I reported this a few weeks ago but as of 12th October nothing has been done about it. This footpath from the roundabout to Lighthouse Lane is very overgrown and dangerous to use. There is no footpath on the other side so you have to pick your way through the weeds (mostly stinging nettles) and hope that none of the cars coming off the bypass into Formby comes too close to the path. I drew some lines on the attached photos to demonstrate the continuation of the path. Can you please clear the weeds which will double the size of the path and make it much safer to use. Thank you.

Hazardous Footpath, 7th September

Thu, 07 Sep 2023 12:44:39 +0100
53.545944 -3.054408

The path is very narrow and due to the weeds which are covering a third of it, you have to walk quite close to the busy road which is very dangerous as there are a lot of cars coming off the dual carriageway at high speed.

Dangerous junction!, 16th March

53.536455 -3.045478

Another accident has happened on the Formby bypass which this time has sadly led to a loss of life. This junction in particular is clearly very dangerous and likely needs to be improved to decrease the chances of future incidents. Possibly a set of filter lights or other traffic flow improving measures. Please can the council investigate this further as a matter of urgency?
