The Allerton Road District Centre Improvement Scheme starts on site on Monday 7th February, 2011. It will see the removal of the central reservation planter and improved street lighting between Queens Drive and Green Lane.
Improvement works will also take place on the service road on Allerton Road between Queens Drive and Green Lane, including the upgrading of pedestrian crossings, junction and bus stop improvements and street lighting upgrades.

The £670,000 works are funded by Tesco, as part of a planning obligation in relation to their store on Mather Avenue, and are being delivered by Enterprise-Liverpool Ltd and Aggregate Industries.
The 12-week scheme has been split into phases, with work to the central reservation running concurrently with the service road works to minimise disruption.
During the central reservation works, it is proposed to reduce the two lanes for traffic to one, outbound (vehicles travelling in the direction from Queens Drive to Green Lane). However, parking bays will remain in place.
While construction is underway on the service road, short sections of the road will be closed, but access to businesses and residential properties will be maintained wherever possible.
