Transport in the Liverpool City Region

A modern, effective transport system is what defines great international cities (and city regions). Connecting people to employment, education and leisure also supports and grows the economy. As part of the Northern Powerhouse, we are already delivering better, smarter transport options for those who live and work here.

Working with other northern cities and regions through Transport for the North (TfN) means even greater opportunity for a transport network that reaps benefits on a much larger scale, improving travel, and all the services that go with it, across the whole of the North.

Buses

Buses are the backbone of our transport system – it is because of this that we’re working to constantly improve them. We want our bus network to provide real value for money, with quality, cleaner, greener buses, reliable services and easy to understand journey planning and smart ticketing.

Ferries

Our iconic Mersey Ferries are an essential part of the Liverpool City Region’s rich and diverse history. The Ferries offer a unique cross river transport service that offers significant resilience to our other modes of transport across the region.

Rail

We are committed to ensuring that our city region has the connectivity it needs to grow our economy and build the foundations for future prosperity. That’s why it is essential for the Liverpool City Region to have the very best connections between the North of England, the rest of the UK and to the world.

Tunnels

The Kingsway (Wallasey)and Queensway (Birkenhead) tunnels are major thoroughfares, with about 27 million vehicles travelling through them each year. The tunnels are the largest in the UK and are key assets for our city region.
