A Merseyside road will be closed for two days every week for the next year to make way for a new open-air market.
Market Street in Southport will now shut down on Wednesdays and Thursdays starting from August 3. The council has also approved the implementation of temporary traffic lights at the junction of King Street.
The decision comes as the council looks to bring back open-air markets that proved popular with locals in other areas of Southport. The road will be closed from 5am to 8pm on both days.
