Scottish Power restore traffic light signalling on Brooms Cross Road

The Council received some complaints from residents who had been understandably inconvenienced however, these outages were attributed to a loss in power and therefore this was the responsibility of Scottish Power to rectify the fault.

These shortages were reported to Scottish Power on each occasion and they subsequently undertook some investigations and managed to restore power.

However, on January 14,15, the Traffic Signal junction was off for the majority of the day due to a loss in power

The health and safety of residents is our main priority and so we decided to deploy temporary traffic signals at the junction until we had assurances from Scottish Power that the power wouldn’t be lost at the junction.

Scottish Power have now made assurances that there will be no more disruption to power on the Traffic Signal junction on Brooms Cross Road, with Sefton Council instructing Siemens their traffic signal maintenance contractor to remove the Temporary Traffic Lights and restore power to the Permanent Traffic Signals.
