Sefton Council has announced it is pursuing the futures of Crosby Village and Waterloo Library as two separate schemes.

A Council spokesperson said: “Sefton Council is committed to its exciting and innovative project to help secure a successful and robust future for Crosby Village. 

“The Council’s Cabinet has given consideration as to how refurbishment of the existing Library in Waterloo could be included in this project. 

"Given our high aspirations for Waterloo and Crosby we have decided to pursue both as separate schemes. 

"We will therefore be continuing to deliver the Crosby Village scheme and at the same time we will retain the existing Library in Waterloo.”
