TRACE meeting 20th July

A well attended meeting at the Scout Hall on Church Road on the 20th of July backed a campaign to resist compulsory purchase and demolition.

Although TRACE was very supportive of the Council project to improve Church Road they were also opposed to anyone being forced out of their home and argued instead for a renovation option to be built into the Council's Plans.




A petition was started and would be taken to the forcoming Housing Select Committee meeting at Wallasey Town Hall on the 26th of July at 6.15pm. The wording of the petition was as follows:

Petition - Housing Market Renewal in Tranmere

Demolition of People’s Homes Not the Only Option

We the undersigned support the regeneration of Tranmere’s Church Road but do not support the compulsory demolition of homes in the streets behind.

We call on Wirral Council:

• to continue with the improvement planning
• to support residents who want to stay in their own homes and improve them
• Don’t make demolition the only option - for homes in the target streets behind Church Road
