Single-Vehicle Incident Disrupts Traffic
According to reports, the crash took place on Bedford Street South, leading to a full road closure between Canning Street and Sir Howard Street. Initial assessments indicated that the vehicle involved had “ended up in quite a precarious position,” as described by a force incident manager for Merseyside Police.
Pictures taken at approximately 6:45 PM revealed the extent of the situation: the car was wedged in a gap at the front of a Georgian house, specifically an entryway leading to the basement. This unusual placement necessitated a careful and methodical removal process.

Traffic officers were dispatched to the scene to manage the road closure and redirect traffic flow. The vehicle was successfully removed at approximately 7:30 PM, utilizing specialist equipment to navigate the complex recovery.
Authorities anticipate that Bedford Street South will reopen to traffic shortly. The incident caused disruption during the evening commute, but the swift action of emergency services minimized potential delays.
