Everton transport talks could bring new matchday buses and shuttle services

New matchday bus and shuttle services are being considered to improve travel options for Everton supporters attending matches at Hill Dickinson. The proposals were discussed in a meeting involving the Everton Fan Advisory Board, Liverpool City Region Mayor Steve Rotheram, Merseyrail, local authority representatives, and the club following fan safety and travel concerns.

Discussions focused on potential connections to hubs such as Liverpool Lime Street, Bank Hall, Kirkdale, and Hamilton Square after a survey revealed significant fan dissatisfaction with Sandhills station. Merseyrail noted that signalling restrictions limit train capacity, and while no new services have been officially agreed upon yet, stakeholders plan to hold quarterly meetings.
