New lifts under construction at Rock Ferry and Aigburth. Port Sunlight and Walton not far behind.

This will apparently mean that 3/4 of Liverpool City Region stations will be fully accessible.


A 9.5m investment means Rock Ferry and Aigburth stations will soon become 'fully accessible' to passengers with mobility issues, prams, bikes and wheelchairs.

Plans are also being drawn up for lifts at Port Sunlight and Walton which, once complete, will see fully accessibility at three quarters of the city region’s rail stations.

Lifts have already been installed at Formby, Birkenhead North, Orrell Park, Meols, Birkenhead Park, Hunts Cross, Hillside and St Michael's stations in recent years – enabling step free access from pavement to platform.
