Church Road, Higher Tranmere, Birkenhead.
Closed between Seymore Road and Thompson Street due to large crane in road demolishing one of the few remaining buildings.

NO advance warning and NO signed diversion.
Prople are just having to find their way down through the little back streets. Many are getting lost and turning around.

It is hard to tell if this is planned or emergency work, but either way, it seems badly managed.

the was a big fire last night

Sheridans the old butchers next to the co-op was set alight and the building is unsafe so road closed of for safety reasons.

Sheridan's was burnt down last night, the police were there about 8am, diggers were in about 2pm razing it to the ground. Had a City Link artic trying to get down one of the side roads which cars were having difficulty getting through.
Such a shame really, they were probably the only butchers that were open til 10pm. Surely this row is the last of the buildings waiting to be demolished. Council arson crew in again last night?

Approach to Wallasey tunnel from junction one. Long tail back expect delays at least 10 minutes.

Traffic is backing up now. 30 minutes delay.
Get off junction one and use birkehead tunnel.

Still not sure of why?

Also, Telegraph Road between Caldy RUFC and Cottage Loaf has one way traffic controlled by lights; looks like they are rebuilding a section of stone wall. Not a problem now, but could be a pain during the school rush/rush hour this afternoon.

Tunnel is clear must be the back end of inncident ?

Hi volume of traffic.
Im on the liverpool side now, so cant say the approach is clear wallasey side.
