    A consultation on the Southport Liveable Neighbourhood scheme is being extended until mid December in order to continue ongoing engagement and discussion with the community.

    Numerous ideas and suggestions have been put forward as part of the proposed scheme, which is part of Sefton Council's ongoing work to create low traffic communities within the Borough.

    The Southport Liveable Neighbourhoods Scheme was put forward earlier this year in partnership with transport charity Sustrans, in order to meet national, regional and local policies to encourage walking and cycling for short journeys, and help address Climate change, air quality, safety and the impact of traffic noise and congestion in our neighbourhoods. The scheme is also intended to support safer walking and cycling to school for young people.

    Engagement sessions, leaflet drops and online surveys have so far been held to best capture the thoughts and input of the community where the Liveable Neighbourhoods project is proposed and Sefton Council has repeatedly reaffirmed its desire to work collaboratively with residents and businesses.

    In order to continue this collaboration, Sefton Council have extended the Southport Liveable Neighbourhoods consultation deadline until Sunday, December 19th.

    An open public engagement session will also be held at the Salvation Army Centre on Shakespeare Street, Southport on Tuesday, November 30th.

    Cllr John Fairclough, Sefton Council's Cabinet Member for Locality Services, said: "These proposals are completely a collaborative process, where we want to work with and listen to the local community to co-design improvements to our neighbourhoods.

    “That is why we have extended our in-depth consultation process, further allowing for an open forum for the whole community to get involved in, regardless of their views on the environment, transport and travel.

    “We want as many people as possible to get involved in the process and there are lots of way for people to get involved. We will be writing to all households and businesses within this area to encourage continued engagement in this important conversation.

    “We are working closely with Sustrans to ensure that we are seeking to engage the whole community in the Liveable Neighbourhoods; from school children to adults of all ages and business owners”

    Shame it will achieve none of that. It will achieve longer journeys causing more congestion and more emissions, send businesses to the wall, disenfranchise the elderly and disabled who rely on their cars to access local services and prevent the emergency services from reaching people in a timely manner.

    I'm all for schemes that genuinely help make places better for their residents but this is the very opposite sadly, designed by someone who has no knowledge of Southport or experience of how the area functions. They should have started by asking the residents and business owners what they needed instead of seeking to impose a badly thought-out mess upon them.

    People that I know, would be pleased to have less traffic/quieter streets outside their houses....
    I certainly would!

    As it has been said that there are more against the scheme than for it why extend it?
    Or is it suddenly going to be flooded with bogus people backing it. Southport Cemetery and Ainsdale Cemetery are full of names to be added to the FOR side.
    What next best of 3, 5, 7, 9, ?????until it is accepted by the Fairclough family.

    Do you live in Preston New Rd or Cambridge Rd as you still haven't answered the points made about gridlock from Crossens to Hesketh Park . We get your views thrust down our throats at every opportunity but you don't come up with answers to the problems anyone with any understanding of the scheme point out. Since Chapel St was closed and Lord St was cut in half by bus lanes and the longest sequence traffic lights in Christendom installed on the promenade traffic has got worse and worse on certain cross town roads then came Queens Rd and yes even more traffic on Norwood Ave/ Norwood Rd/St Lukes Rd/ Cemetery Rd/ Eastbourne Rd I don't suppose you live on one of those either!!

    I totally agree! Very worthy goals! Just the plans are so bad they will do the exact opposite!

    Yes, some will get less traffic because that traffic is to be forced to pass our primary schools.

    Cyclists have made it clear they need somewhere safe to leave their bicycles. No amount of quiet rds or cycle lanes will persuade them to cycle to a place where their bikes will be stolen.

    Pedestrians certainly don't need more traffic at schools. More would walk if the pavements were repaired to reduce trip hazards.

    The pollution will go up due to longer journeys, backed up traffic and start /stop in lower gears which has been proven to create more pollution.

    Residents could implement a scheme that would achieve these worthy goals!
