People across the city region are being asked for their views on the enormous project
Views are being sought on huge plans for the world's largest tidal power project - which could stretch across the River Mersey and form a link between Liverpool and Wirral . The Mersey Tidal Barrage has been an ambition of Mayor Steve Rotheram since he was elected as the city region's first Metro Mayor in 2017.
“The Mersey Tidal Project is one of the most challenging schemes to deliver due to the environmental, ecological and economic considerations, but it’s potential to generate clean, green and predictable energy would be worth all the effort we are putting into this planning stage.' Households in areas closest to the proposed project have been receiving invitations to public consultation events, with the first to be held at the Museum of Liverpool on Thursday October 3.
