Local residents have contacted Edward McCarthy Conservative Candidate for Knowsley ward about an obstruction on Southport Road in Ormskirk.
Edward reports "Relating to roadworks there is a huge diversion sign on the pavement, it completely blocks the pavement meaning pedestrians including scooter or wheelchair users have to go onto the busy road. I have contacted Highways England and asked them to either remove the sign or put it in a more suitable place."
Update-The sign has now been moved. A quote from a resident: "Thank you Edward I am really surprised you were able to do it so efficiently, and you certainly have convinced me you deserve my support,as we always have done anyway. Cheers and good luck in the election."Promoted by Bill Weingart, on behalf of Edward McCarthy and Thomas Burton, all of WLCA, 72C New Court Way, Ormskirk Lancs L39 2YT.
