Eastern Approaches/Edge Lane
Edge Lane is the main link road between the M62 and Liverpool City Centre. Our planned improvements to this route will reduce traffic congestion and contribute to the regeneration of the area. They will also help to give visitors a more positive image of the city.
The scheme is split into three parts. The Edge Lane West scheme (from Botanic Road to Hall Lane) will improve facilities for cyclists and pedestrians, as well as improving access to new developments. Work on the Edge Lane Central scheme (the existing dual carriageway sections of Edge Lane to the east of Edge Lane West) will provide access to new retail, housing, leisure, business and light industrial sites. The final part of the scheme will see environmental improvements to Edge Lane Drive, and work is due to be complete by August 2007.
