In general there is no massive difference (UHI effect) is expected between Liverpool city and nearby rural area (Woolton). Approximately, 12.0F hotter in the city than nearby rural area, Average 1.0F city summers are hotter than rural and 5-6 days above 90.0F each year than rural area.

To reduce the UHI effect within cities it would be more effective to introduce green roofs, reflective cladding / facades systems for city centre buildings. On the other hand the government should encourage those uses through providing incentive schemes. Is UHI effect concerning policy making in your area? No idea.
