Corporate Plan 2024-2028

The Liverpool City Region is a place of diversity and vibrancy. Culture is at the very heart of what makes our city region unique.

Despite this, the region faces place-based challenges which impact on the quality of life for many of our residents.

We are investing to tackle homelessness, increase access to quality housing, improve air quality and tackle the climate emergency through a coordinated, strategic, place-based approach.

The city region has seen great improvements in its transport network, such as the delivery of new stations, modern zero emission buses, and our new, state-of-the-art trains on the Merseyrail network.

Through this plan, we will continue to innovate, increasing connection and promoting mobility across the region. We are creating the modern, integrated and publicly controlled public transport system that our communities and businesses need, and delivering the social, economic and climate benefits that a low carbon transport system brings.

The Combined Authority is primarily a strategic economic development organisation, with the economic needs of the region at the centre of everything it does.

We are investing hundreds of millions of pounds to grow the economy in every part of the Liverpool City Region: investing in start-ups and fast-growing business, attracting companies to locate here, and delivering the transport, digital infrastructure and skilled workforce that they need to thrive – and create jobs for local residents.

The city region’s economy is powered by the diverse, innovative, creative and hard-working people who live and work here. There is real strength and depth in the region’s workforce.

We are investing so that our residents have the right skills and access to opportunities to thrive in the regional economy.

Improving health and reducing health inequalities will create the conditions for people to flourish, enabling our residents to better access opportunities, develop better skills, be more productive and prosperous.
