Everton and Sefton Council have agreed to work together ahead of the club’s new stadium opening at Bramley-Moore Dock
Everton Football Club and Sefton Council have agreed to work together with a view to further enhancing the transport offer from the borough ahead of the club’s new stadium opening at Bramley-Moore Dock.
Cllr Marion Atkinson, Leader of Sefton Council, said: “This is an exciting time for Bootle town centre and with Everton Stadium little more than a goal kick away, it makes absolute sense for the Council and Everton to work together to make sure fans have a range of choices in how they arrive and depart from the new stadium.”
The partnership will also investigate active travel opportunities, while promoting better information around the well-served local train network that caters for the Southport to Liverpool and Ormskirk to Liverpool lines - both of which stop at Sandhills Station, close to Everton Stadium. Both parties have committed to joint engagement and management of public messaging relating to transportation arrangements before, during and after any matches and large-scale events.
Cllr Paulette Lappin, Cabinet Member for Regeneration and Skills, said: “I’m very pleased to see the progress of Everton’s stadium development at Bramley-Moore Dock, which will bring a significant boost to the City Region economy, to Sefton and in particular to Bootle.
