A major road across North Liverpool is to benefit from almost £1m in government funding.
As part of the Department for Transport’s Safer Roads Fund, the A5038 - a more than six mile stretch which runs from Netherton to near the Queensway tunnel - is to be upgraded through improved junctions and improved signage. The road is one of five to benefit from the latest tranche of £3.6m in funding, with £859,000 awarded to Liverpool.
The programme will reduce the risk of collisions, in turn reducing congestion, journey times and emissions. As part of the fund, the government working with local authorities such as Liverpool Council, and safety groups is continuing to deliver a wide range of improvements across all roads.
