A number of residents have contacted your Lib Dem Team to report their concerns that vehicles are being offered for sale at the roadside along Cambridge Road.
Cambridge Road is one of the main routes into Southport and as a result many people feel it is not an appropriate location for vehicles to be offered for sale. It is possible that these vehicles may act as a distraction to drivers or as a possible hazard, on what is, a very busy road
As a result, your Lib Dem Councillors have asked the Council to include Cambridge Road within the Control of Roadside Sales Order. This order states that “no person shall sell anything on the specified highway or offer or expose anything for sale on that highway”
Other roads within Southport that are covered by the order include:
Hawkshead Street,
Liverpool Avenue, Ainsdale
Liverpool Road, Birkdale
Preston New Road,
Scarisbrick New Road,
St. Cuthberts Road, Churchtown,
The inclusion of Cambridge Road within the order followed the required public notification and consultation with the Chief Officer of Police.
This order does not apply to anything done at premises used as a shop or petrol filling station on Cambridge Road.
Residents can report details of any vehicles that are offered for sale on Cambridge Road by contacting SEFTON PLUS on 084540 0845, minicom 0151 934 4657 or fill in the contact us online form on the Sefton Council website.
