Merseyrail has announced it will begin to operate a 15-minute service across most of its network from Monday, May 2.
During the pandemic, Merseyrail services were reduced due to short staffing. Now restrictions have been removed, the rail operator has announced its return to 15-minute services.
Earlier, Merseyrail had said it was now in a "recovery phase" after the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic - which saw passenger journeys fall by 90%. The rail operator has returned to the black and its turnover rose in 2021. It posted a pre-tax profit of £2.7m for the 12 months to January 8, 2022, after it fell to a loss of £2.5m during the previous year.
