Some people have voiced their frustration at having to cut their nights short and high taxi fares due to a lack of public transport over the water at night.
After the ECHO reported that the Liverpool City Region will “monitor the possibility” of night trains and other late night services after Eurovision, many people called for trains to be introduced or see a return of the night bus that once took people from Liverpool to the Wirral in the early hours of the morning.
Late night services were temporarily brought in to deal with the huge crowds at the Eurovision Song Contest but usually buses and trains stop just before midnight. For those on the Wirral in particular, this means tunnel tolls and other factors can drive up the price of taxis to sometimes £60 or more.
