Liverpool fans are in agreement that better public transport links are badly needed for those travelling to and from Anfield stadium.
Yesterday a Liverpool City Region Combined Authority meeting heard discussions about the possibility of tram train technology being uses to answer public transport issues for the famous stadium and other parts of north and east Liverpool.
Members were debating the development of the combined authority’s local transport plan, which looks to improve public transport options and encourage people to swap their car for a cleaner, greener alternative. Cllr Steve Radford, chair of the committee, and Tuebrook and Stoneycroft member, said on Liverpool matchdays you can “sense” the air pollution being generated by cars around the stadium and proposed the adoption of passenger trains on the nearby Canada Dock Branch line, known as the Bootle Branch line.
