The Environment, Climate Emergency and Transport committee approved the roll out of ANPR camera technology at all School Streets, including Raeburn Primary.
Organisers say the seminar will offer an engaging mix of presentations and informal Q&A opportunities, giving attendees the chance to learn directly from specialists and talk through any concerns or queries they might have.
Plans have been set out for how £6 million will be spent on road maintenance - and a further £3 million on local transport schemes in Wirral - over the coming year.
The ratings are based on official statistics and transparency reports published by councils. Authorities with well-maintained roads, strong adoption of best practice, and significant investment in maintenance receive a green rating.
Some council areas will shut down, with others offering limited opening hours over the festive period meaning that some services will be unavailable at that time.
A period of public consultation is now underway and residents can take a look at the details of what is planned and leave their feedback using the council’s ‘Have Your Say’ platform.
School Streets are usually in operation at the start and end of the school day during the school term. Signs at each site display the restricted times and only pedestrians, cyclists or motorists with an exemption should access the School Street during these times.
As the original order was coming to an end, similar complaints of anti-social behaviour were starting to increase which is why community safety partners, including Wirral Council and Merseyside Police, with the support of businesses and residents in the area, sought to renew it.
The process to extend the scheme follows a successful implementation of ANPR technology at Greenleas in Wallasey – which was, coincidentally, the very first School Streets scheme in Wirral.
