Renaming Higher Tranmere?

I sent the following email last week to Emma Foley - the Housing Regeneration Manager for Wirral and she replied as follows.


Hi Emma
I have been asked by a few residents locally what is happening about the idea of renaming the area. I know that a suggestion had been made for Holt Hill Village but also that many - including myself - think that Higher Tranmere is fine and should continue to be the name for the area. Do you know any more about this?

Hi James,

I was hoping that Nicky Rigby our Communications and Marketing Manager would have been able to update you at the last residents meeting but unfortunately she was unable to attend. Nicky will be running a high profile street naming competition for some of the new streets and the new retail centre in Church Road which will be promoted by Radio City in February next year. This will be widely publicised and will give more people the chance to participate than we previously consulted.

I think Nicky, who is employed by Newheartlands rather than Wirral Council, will be offering some attractive prizes to encourage people to participate.

Hopefully we will have more information at the next Church Road Residents meeting on 8th November

Kind Regards

Emma

Any thoughts on this ... ?
