HGV's

The Green Party has been approached by several people recently living in Moorfield Road and Barrows Green Lane about the numbers of HGV's using both roads even though there's a weight restriction on them

I have contacted Halton Council to find out about the situation - below is the query


'Several residents of Moorfield Rd and Barrows Green Lane have reported that HGV's are using Barrows Green Lane and Moorfield Rd. These road have weight restrictions - does the council have a responsibilty to ensure situation not happening or is it entirely a policing matter.
As the main culprit seems to be HGV's accessing Rockwoods plant in Moorfield Rd would it be possible to mount CCTV in the vicinity to capture such HGV's
It seems in the past that residents have approached the council and police but nothing has really happened and the problem seems to be getting worse.
Would be grateful for any help re matter'

I'll let you know the outcome of this
