REVEALED: Council issues disappointing update on west kirby flood wall | Rare Historical Photos

Wirral Council has issued an update on West Kirby's flood wall as some works may "continue beyond Christmas".

Work on the project began in June 2022 and continued through the summer. But there was much speculation that there may have been "issues" with the works after activity appeared to have stalled.

Wirral Council since confirmed that this was due to the "load testing process, which is an essential part of the project". While it "has taken a little longer than expected" to complete and review the load test results, the piling works themselves "have gone well".
