Liverpool City Council introduce Hill Dickinson Stadium ‘upgrade’

Jordan Pickford has loved playing at the Hill Dickinson Stadium this season, but Everton have been unable to nail down consistent wins on home soil.

A report from the BBC has revealed Liverpool City Council’s installation of ‘smart’ street lighting in the streets leading to the new home of the Blues.

The new lighting system has been funded by the Department for Transport, with an expectation for energy savings in the region of 30% over the next decade.

That was a disgraceful performance from Everton… something has to change! 😤

With the primary goal of improving safety around the stadium, the following streets have seen the upgrades installed:

• Great Howard Street
• Derby Road

“We’re proud to be among the first UK local authorities to deploy traffic-adaptive lighting at scale,” said Ali Zahran, principal street lighting engineer at Liverpool City Council.

Many Evertonians will now be hoping for bigger improvements at the stadium, with the transport options proving a real issue for thousands of supporters.

Merseyrail continue to back their Everton matchday services, but this does not mean fans are not experiencing issues.

Unfortunately, changes to the transport links feel like much larger problems that will require significant infrastructure developments to improve the services on offer.
