Kirkdale West ward is an electoral district of Liverpool City Council within the Liverpool Riverside constituency.

Background

The ward was created for the elections held on 4 May 2023 following a 2022 review by the Local Government Boundary Commission for England, which decided that the previous 30 wards each represented by three Councillors should be replaced by 64 wards represented by 85 councillors with varying representation by one, two or three councillors per ward. The Kirkdale West ward was created as a single-member ward from a portion of the former Kirkdale ward.[1] The ward boundaries follow Westminster Road, Smith Street, Great Mersey Street, Commercial Road, Boundary Street, the Northern Line (Southport branch) to Kings Road and thereafter behind Orlando Street.[1] The ward is part of the Kirkdale district of Liverpool, England and contains Kirkdale and Bank Hall railway stations.
