Wirral Council hopes to finish off the rollout in 2025

Wirral Council is set to ask for opinions on new 20mph limits in five areas next week with more to follow. At an environment and transport committee on July 15, Greasby councillor Gail Jenkinson asked about plans to consult the public on phases three and four of the council's 20mph road safety scheme because from her understanding it was due to start now.

According to a council report in March, it plans to finish the roll out on roads in 2025 funded by £300,000 from the Liverpool City Region Combined Authority. Merseyside Police in May said it had issued 170 fines for speeding above 20mph on the Wirral with 50 warning letters issued. A Freedom of Information request said these took place on Greenleas Road in Wallasey which is currently the only 20mph restricted road being enforced by the Merseyside Police Safer Roads Unit.
