Executive summary
A Strategic Transport Framework Action Plan
In 2016, Mott MacDonald produced (on behalf of Merseytravel and the Liverpool City Region
District Partners) the Liverpool City Region (LCR) Transport Investment Pipeline, which covered
Halton, Knowsley, Liverpool, Sefton, St. Helens and Wirral as well as an overarching City
Region level pipeline undertaken for Merseytravel. This project presented a ‘pipeline’ of
transport investments for the next 20 years in the LCR, with one pipeline for each area. The
pipelines were intended to act as the investment framework for transport schemes to be
developed and delivered in support of the LCR’s new strategic transport vision, A Transport
Plan for Growth.
Since the development of the first Wirral Transport Pipeline in 2016 Wirral Council has produced
a number of local policy documents which set transport in the borough in the context of
significant economic growth. A Strategic Transport Framework Action Plan is therefore required
to enable this growth and to ensure that the transport network is fully aligned with Wirral’s
regeneration plans / proposals.
Wirral’s ambitious aspirations for growth are outlined within the Wirral Strategic Regeneration
Framework (SRF) – part of Wirral’s comprehensive ‘2020 Vision’ - which sets out the priorities
