IN BRIEF
JUBILEE 2022 STREET PARTIES
GORDON RAMSAY ' S BREAD STREET KITCHEN & BAR COMES TO LIVERPOOL
Community spirited Sefton residents considering hosting a street party for Queen Elizabeth II ' s Platinum Jubilee are being asked to contact the council as soon as possible .
While food , drink and tablecloths may be high on any party planner ' s list for the celebrations , which take place over the long weekend of June 2nd - June 5th , many residents may not be aware of the need to formally close off their street .
There is no cost involved for this service but party organisers will need to let Sefton Council know of their plans by Wednesday , May 11th , in order for the local authority to begin official street closure proceedings .
Cllr John Fairclough , Sefton Council ' s Cabinet Member for Locality Services , said : " Sefton Council is keen that as many people as possible enjoy this once in a lifetime special occasion and for many closely knit communities , that will likely mean a street party is being planned ! In order for street parties to take place however , Sefton Council has a legal duty to formally publish notice of any road closures where parties are taking place .
" Already we have been contacted about a number of Jubilee celebration road closures and we would urge anyone thinking of doing similar to get in touch with us as soon as possible . Organising a street party has many different rewards and brings together neighbours and local communities , showing off Sefton at its very best as a warm hearted and caring borough for everyone ."
It will not be possible to process any street closure requests for the Jubilee weekend after the May 11th deadline . Organisers will need to provide their contact details , proposed closure dates and the road or section of road they wish to close . Each application will be assessed on a case by case basis , however residents are reminded that all parties should take place away from busy roads , such as main roads and bus routes .
