The rate for cyclists has remained the same since with just as many pedestrians hurt or killed in 2022
Figures show the number of cyclists killed or seriously injured on Wirral’s roads surged in one year.
In terms of numbers, 30 cyclists, 30 pedestrians and 20 motorcyclists were killed or seriously injured in the Wirral. Of the 440 accidents in 2022, 382 involved a car driver. 102 involved cyclists with 85 of these accidents involving cars. This includes various improvements to road junctions, new 20mph zones, as well as an aim to get the number of people killed or seriously injured on Wirral’s roads down to zero. This is part of a wider Liverpool City Region strategy.
The proposals for more 20mph zones have faced opposition with concerns raised by Conservative councillors in recent weeks despite previously voting for the policy. Police and crime commissioner Emily Spurrell has also said the police support the rollout and are working with the council.
