Active Travel Network

Hundreds of millions of pounds of investment is being committed to new cycling and walking routes across the Liverpool City Region to help you travel actively with more confidence.

Most of the journeys in our city region are less than 5km, but a lot of us still make those trips by car. Our new walking and cycling network will be linked to our wider public transport system making it simple to switch to active kinds of travel.

Active Travel and Public Transport

Active travel is as important to the wider Liverpool City Region transport network as our buses, trains or Mersey Ferries. That’s why millions of pounds is being invested to make our transport hubs as accessible as possible by cycling and walking. Cycle to your nearest Merseyrail station and use the newly upgraded secure storage facilities available across the network; walk from one of our centrally located bus stations to your destination; even take your bike across the river on our ferry services or use the cycle parking at one of our ferry terminals.
