Recent Dock Extensions at Liverpool, with a General Description of the MerseyDock Estate,the Port of Liverpool,and the RiverMersey.” By GEORGEFOSBERY LYSTER, M. Inst. C.E. THEspecial characteristics of theRiver Mersey, theimportant positionwhich Liverpool occupies among theleading trading centres of the world, and the rapid development of its commerce are, each and all, so interesting to engineers, that in submitting a Paper descriptive of the most recent dock extensions carried out in the port, the Author has been induced to touch upon each of these points, as a fitting preamble to the more formal and precise description of the special works which form the leading features of the Paper. Few, if any, localities, inthis country at all events, are so favourably situatedfor the construction of a comprehensive system of docks as that of Liverpool, not onlyby reason of its geographical position on the seaboard of the country, with its unrivalled water frontage, but also on account of its proximity to the great manu- faeturing districts, as well as to the coal and mineral fields of the North of England and Wales, with which it is linked by railways and canals, which aresuch important factors in thedevelopment and maintenance of successful trading.

Merseytravel welcomes this important opportunity to submit evidence to the National Assembly for Wales’s Economy, Infrastructure and Skills Committee’s Inquiry into the Rail Franchise and South Wales Metro. 2. It is noted that the Committee’s inquiry is focused on the following issues: The effectiveness of the Welsh Government’s approach to the development, procurement and delivery of the rail franchise and South Wales Metro, including key risks and how they can be mitigated; and Priorities for the franchise specification and Metro delivery to ensure rail services meet the needs of current and future passengers throughout the franchise area, and deliver value for money for both passengers and the taxpayer 3. Merseytravel’s evidence will focus upon the latter point, namely priorities in respect of the rail franchise, rather than on the effectiveness of the Welsh Government’s procurement processes. Neither does this submission comment upon the delivery of the South Wales Metro, as Merseytravel would not wish to comment on devolved issue, and one with no direct bearing on the LCR. 4. Merseytravel is the Liverpool City Region Combined Authority’s (LCRCA’s) lead advisory body and executive body on transport issues. It also advises the LCR’s Local Enterprise Partnership (LEP) on transport matters. The LCRCA is a statutory body covering the local authority districts of Halton, Knowsley, Liverpool, St Helens, Sefton and Wirral with a collective population of 1.5 million.

This response was considered and endorsed by the Merseytravel Committee on 7 January 2016. Merseytravel is the Combined Authority’s lead advisory body and executive body on transport issues across the Liverpool City Region (LCR). The LCR comprises the local authority districts of Halton, Knowsley, Liverpool, St Helens, Sefton and Wirral with a combined population of 1.5 million. This response is also consistent with responses being developed by Transport for the North and Rail North and by our cross-border partners. Our response to the questions posed is as follows:- 1. The Liverpool City Region is pleased to engage with the National Assembly for Wales on this important inquiry. The city region has a long history of working jointly with Welsh Government and Welsh local authorities on issues of cross boundary transport importance, recognising that transport networks rarely recognise administrative boundaries. Cont/…. -2- North East Wales, West Cheshire and parts of the LCR form part of a common, recognisable economic and travel-to-work-area, which necessitates east-west movements and enhanced cross-boundary multi-modal links.
