00:00Wirral Council says the decision on the future of Birkenhead's brightly painted
00:05What's It Street could be many months away. Grange Road West was turned into a one-way
00:11route in October as part of a trial aimed at encouraging drivers to slow down, improving
00:16safety and boosting local businesses. Bright orange and yellow road markings attracted
00:22national attention and criticism, with some residents saying the design made the town
00:27laughing stock. The scheme is operating under an experimental traffic order, with a six-month
00:34public consultation nearing its end. The council says it will then have up to 12 months to review
00:39feedback before deciding whether to keep, change or remove the layout.
