Wirral council has extended a consultation on two current active travel schemes that are currently under review.
Closing 9 December, the consultation process gives members of the public an opportunity to provide feedback on schemes on Fender Lane in Moreton and New Chester Road, Birkenhead.
Both schemes were implemented in 2020 to provide a safe, dedicated space for cyclists alongside, but separated, from motorised traffic.
The council announced that local opinion will be considered alongside traffic flow and collision data in addition to design guidance from the Department for Transport (DfT) – via the Environment, Climate Emergency and Transport Committee.
The committee may decide that no change is needed, they may decide that some improvements to how they operate are necessary to make them more effective.
Or they may decide that the routes are not working and recommend that they are returned to how they were before 2020.
