Liverpool City Region Combined Authority placed in top spot as it wins Regional Transport Authority of the Year at prestigious UK awards

“This is great news and recognition of the work we are delivering on behalf of the people of our city region. This award is testament to the dedication and ambition of everyone who is working to make our transport network one of the best in the country.

“We’ve always believed that accessible, affordable and sustainable transport is not just a goal but a right that every community should enjoy. Our mission has always been clear: to ensure that no one is left behind, and today’s recognition shows that we’re well on the way to achieving that.

“From our new publicly owned trains, work to take back control of buses and our expanding active travel routes, we’re not just investing in infrastructure; we’re investing in the future of our region. But we’re not done yet. With even more exciting projects in the pipeline, we’re committed to delivering the London-style integrated transport system our residents deserve.”
