Millers Bridge in Bootle was forced to close after Merseyside Fire and Rescue were called to the scene on June 6. A spokesperson for the fire service confirmed that the road had been shut down due to a large amount of suspected cooking oil being spilled across the road.
Merseyside police were also at the scene to assist with traffic management. Now the Council has confirmed that Balliol Road at Millers Bridge will remain closed for the rest of Tuesday.
