This funding, from the government’s Active <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/Travel" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Travel</span></a> Fund, will improve connections between existing and planned routes, promoting <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/walking" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>walking</span></a>, <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/cycling" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>cycling</span></a>, and wheeling as safer alternatives to car use. Additional funds will support projects like <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/cycle" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>cycle</span></a> safety training, secure bike parking, and social prescribing schemes for health and wellbeing. The investment is part of a wider plan to create a 600km network of walking and cycling routes, with 148km already delivered. This forms part of Mayor Rotheram’s plan for an integrated, London-style <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/transport" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>transport</span></a> system. Other major investments include over 100 zero-emission <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/buses" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>buses</span></a>, a new Mersey Ferry, and improvements to St Helens town centre and the Liverpool Baltic rail station.<br><a href="https://www.liverpoolcityregion-ca.gov.uk/news/over-7m-of-new-funding-to-move-walking-and-cycling-plans-for-the-region-forward" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">liverpoolcityregion-ca.gov.uk/</span><span class="invisible">news/over-7m-of-new-funding-to-move-walking-and-cycling-plans-for-the-region-forward</span></a></p>

The £32m scheme, funded by the <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/Liverpool" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Liverpool</span></a> City Region Combined Authority, aims to improve bus, rail, and active travel links. It forms part of a wider £100m regeneration of St Helens town centre, including the creation of Gamble Square, a new civic space. The interchange will feature 11 bus stands, enhanced safety, step-free access, cycle parking, and real-time service information. The sustainable design includes solar panels, green roofs, and improved public spaces. Completion is expected by 2026, in time for the introduction of franchised bus services. The project is part of a broader effort to deliver a more integrated and accessible transport network across the region.<br><a href="https://www.liverpoolcityregion-ca.gov.uk/news/st-helens-transport-interchange-takes-step-forward-as-planning-application-is-submitted" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">liverpoolcityregion-ca.gov.uk/</span><span class="invisible">news/st-helens-transport-interchange-takes-step-forward-as-planning-application-is-submitted</span></a></p>

He highlighted the progress made, such as the introduction of publicly owned trains and the return of control over buses. Rotheram praised the funding for a new station in the <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/Baltic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Baltic</span></a> Triangle, a rapidly growing area in Liverpool. The new <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/Merseyrail" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Merseyrail</span></a> station will support local growth and is part of plans for three more stations across the region.

Nearly £1.7 billion will be allocated to local buses, roads, and trams this year, alongside £415 million for key rail upgrades across the <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/Pennines" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Pennines</span></a>. The government is also investing £270 million in bus services and £330 million in road maintenance.

A devolution agenda will empower local mayors to accelerate projects such as new tram networks in West <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/Yorkshire" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Yorkshire</span></a> and station upgrades in Merseyside.
