It's been three years since the Churchill Flyover and elevated walkway that dominated central Liverpool were demolished, and with them, the most visible remnants of a forgotten 'masterplan'.
The 240-metre long flyovers were built as part of a city centre inner ring road scheme that was never built. But the Churchill Way flyovers were just one part of a bold 'masterplan' in the 1960s for the city that never fully materialised.
The plans included 'walkways in the sky', motorways and mega-structures in a set of plans that would have created a very different looking city centre to the one we recognise. Opened in 1970, the flyovers connected Lime Street to Dale Street and Tithebarn Street.
