FAQ Test
Currently, many of Liverpool's walking, wheeling, and cycling routes are fragmented, meaning they often end abruptly or don't connect seamlessly to each other or public transport links. The 'Missing Links' schemes are designed to fill those gaps, creating a continuous and high-qualify active travel network.
By joining these routes together, we can make everyday journeys - like getting to work, the shops, or the station - safer, more direct, and more accessible for everyone, regardless of how they choose to travel.
No. These schemes are designed to improve safety and travel for everyone. In most locations, the changes focus on upgrading crossings and better using the existing space, rather than removing traffic lanes.
Yes. Accessibility is at the heart of these designs. We are following national LTN 1/20 standards to ensure that every new path and crossing is inclusive by design.
This means providing smooth, high-quality surfaces, generous path widths, and step-free access at all crossing points. We are looking to create a network that is safe and easy to navigate for wheelchair users, people with mobility aids, and those pushing prams.
We are currently in the very early stages of these projects. Your feedback during this consultation will help us shape and refine the designs before any final decisions are made.
If the schemes move forward to construction, some temporary changes to road or pavement access may be necessary. We are committed to keeping disruption to a minimum and will provide clear, regular updates at every stage of the process to ensure residents and businesses are kept informed.
