“Game-changer” upgrade for hidden gem cycle route

The completion of the first major upgrade to one of Liverpool's key active travel corridors has been hailed as "a game-changer" for the city's population.
The historic Liverpool Loop Line, laid out on a former disused railway that closed in 1964, was originally finished in 2000 after a 12-year reclamation programme. But many of its access points proved to be a barrier.

Now Liverpool City Council, together with its partner Sustrans, has completed the six-month long task of updating 15 entrances along the 11 mile traffic-free route to improve accessibility for all users.
