What was argued and what the tribunal found

The appellants sought a 7.5% allowance on the rateable values of five retail properties in Liverpool city centre to reflect disruption caused by the Liverpool City Centre Connectivity Scheme, which they argued blocked access, reduced visibility, and delayed deliveries from 19 October 2020 to 31 July 2022. The tribunal acknowledged the inconvenience caused by the works but found the appellants had not demonstrated that the impact warranted the 7.5% allowances, as the shopping centre remained accessible via multiple entrances and by alternative transport means, and the hypothetical tenant would not have reduced their rental bid to the extent claimed.
