Two of the city centre’s most important roads will undergo major changes next week as a £47m project reaches a critical phase.
Lime Street will temporarily close to southbound traffic from the junction at Ranelagh Street, while access from The Strand to the Pier Head via the Mann Island junction will be removed.
Both alterations, which are key to the Liverpool City Centre Connectivity programme, will come into effect on Monday 25 January.
A “bus gate” has already been introduced on Ranelagh Street, at the junction with Great Charlotte Street. This measure restricts access to all vehicles on the westbound lane, except buses, taxis and bikes, from 7am to midnight every day.
