Park and ride to beat the Big Dig

Merseytravel's plans include the possibility of building a second storey on car parks at Bromborough, Green Lane, Hooton and the under-construction Liverpool South Parkway.

Mr Cook added: "Park-and-ride is only part of the solution. We have to get more commuters out of their cars and on to public transport for their whole journey.

"On Saturdays, between 70% and 80% of city centre visitors come in on public transport."

University to help with more spaces

MERSEYTRAVEL'S plan was revealed at a meeting of the council's car parking panel.

Councillors were also told that the University of Liverpool is willing to open up its car parks to evening and weekend visitors to ease city centre parking problems.

Mr Cook said Merseytravel had tried to find sites close to the city centre where people could park and be bussed into Liverpool.

But areas close enough to be cheaply linked were already earmarked for development.
