Parking around Formby Beach

We call on Sefton Council to implement double yellow lines on both sides of the road on Raven Meols Lane, Queens Road, Bushbys Lane, and Kirklake Road. Additionally, we request increased deployment of enforcement officers to issue penalty notices and authorize the clamping of vehicles parked illegally or dangerously in these areas. 

Why is this important?

Many residents including myself are concerned how the surrounding areas around Formby Beach are being used by visitors to the area that are using the beach. 

Today on the 25th May 2026, the amount of people and vehicles visiting the beach reached an unsafe level. 

Vehicles were parked on pavements, grassed verges, across residents driveways and double parked. 

This caused major issues for emergency services who where called to the beach making it unable for these services to attend any incidents. 

This has now become a dangerous environment when not even emergency services can get to or from the beach and surrounding areas for emergency response due to the enormous amount of vehicles and people visiting.
