The 97th victim of the Hillsborough disaster, Andrew Devine, has been posthumously awarded the Freedom of Wirral at an extraordinary meeting of the Council this evening (Monday 21 March, 2022).

A road safety partnership initiative between Wirral Council and Merseytravel has resulted not just in better and more skilled drivers, but also a reduction in damaging carbon emissions.

A project to clear overgrown alleyways and fly-tipping hotspots has led to nearly 220 tonnes of waste being removed since 2020.

A scheme of works which will see a dedicated cycle link introduced along Fender Lane begins next Monday (7th March 2022).

Wirral Council has issued a warning to whoever dumped a load of hazardous waste near the public highway in Bromborough that those handing the items may be at risk of harm.

Upgrades to Wirral’s existing CCTV network have been brought in, overhauling the system with the latest technology to help reduce crime and anti-social behaviour.

A new public library and IT facility based at Seacombe Children’s Centre has opened this week.

New electronic signs that alert road users when they are driving too fast have already contributed to a 16% drop in speeding.

One of Wirral’s flagship public parks is launching a new, dedicated website that coincides with a year-long programme of activities in celebration of its 175th anniversary.

Prenton, Bromborough and Birkenhead are the first in a number of areas to benefit from a ‘big spring clean up’ as the council utilises dedicated funding to improve the look of shopping spaces.
