Welcome to our second weekly update from the RVF Road Action Group.

UPDATE NO 2 – 15th September 2017

• The RVF Road Action Group Steering Committee held a planning meeting on Thursday 14th September.
• Over the next couple of weeks we need to get the word spread across the whole community that Highways England has proposed a road across the Rimrose Valley to meet the projected increase in HGV traffic to the docks.

   

• It is absolutely essential that everyone in the communities of South and Central Sefton is made aware of this and to this end the Group will be producing a leaflet for distribution around the whole area.

   

• We will be asking for volunteers to help distribute the leaflets. If you can spare some time in the coming weeks please let us know.

   

• The Steering Group has also set up several sub-groups covering topics such as Communications, Liaison with the Council, and Fundraising. Again this is an area where we will be seeking volunteers.

   

• Fundraising will be stepped up. The Road Action Group already has some funds but we will need more to help with this fight.

   

• You can also help by signing and sharing the petition: https://www.change.org/p/secretary-of-state-for-transport-s… . We now have nearly 6700 signatures but we need more, please keep sharing the petition and encourage people to sign.

   

• Keep your eye on the website for further updates and be prepared!
