Liverpool City Region given £1.4m for 'active travel revolution' plans

Plans to improve cycling and walking in the Liverpool City Region have been given a boost thanks to a fresh injection of funding.

Liverpool City Region Mayor Steve Rotheram has announced that a new pot of £1.4m funding will help to pay for a variety of active travel projects. This will include detailed local route and infrastructure plans developed across Halton, Liverpool, Knowsley, Sefton, St Helens and Wirral.

The funding will also be used to trial new secure cycle parking schemes, with bike parking hangers to be installed in some residential areas. The cash will also pay for free cycle safety lessons for city region residents.
