Road adoption by local council

The request was partially successful.

Dear Department for Transport,

I would like to make a request to Wirral Council about the ownership of a road: North Drive in Heswall, Wirral, CH60 0BD. Please could you inform me of who owns this road?

If this road is not owned by the council, I would like to ask if Wirral Council has any plans to adopt it.

If this is not the case, I would like to know what measures politicians at national level are taking to get councils to adopt and maintain roads. Here, I am not thinking of new roads created by developers, but of historical roads which have remained unadopted for many years, perhaps even decades.

Many thanks.

Yours faithfully,
Dr. Anna K. Hultgren
