The £9m plus revamp of Woodside ferry terminal is underway as part of a major regeneration project to turn the area into a ‘vibrant and unique waterfront destination’.

Plans to kick-start the regeneration of a former gasworks in Birkenhead and create an urban village adjacent to the town centre have moved a step closer thanks to a massive new funding approval from Homes England.

Since reopening in Autumn 2023 following a £2.7m revamp, Bidston Sports and Activity Centre has welcomed residents in their thousands to stay active in state-of-the-art facilities - with a brand-new high specification gym and free weights area, immersive cycling studio and two cafes on offer.

The masterplans form key planning documents for the future development of large swathes of Birkenhead town centre and underpin the council’s Local Plan that focuses on a ‘brownfield first’ approach.

We are proposing changes to parking charges, in line with the approved Parking Strategy, that will affect car parking across the borough.

This year, Wirral is spending more than £8 million on our public highways, to keep our roads in good condition, and safe for everyone who uses them.

We're looking for local people to become a School Crossing Patrol to help children cross the road safely on their way to or from school.

Residents in the three EVOLVE Wirral areas joined representatives from the council, Merseyside Police, Merseyside Fire and Rescue Service and other partners in taking part in Environmental Action Days.

Young people from local primaries have been given a boost to get them to and from school quicker and more safely.

Hear from one of our volunteers as she talks about her experience as one of Wirral’s Tree Wardens.

Residents with a background in early years education could receive a cash incentive to enter the industry thanks to a pilot scheme.

For three amazing days at the end of May, Luke Jerram's iconic 'Gaia' installation will be visiting Wirral...and we're looking people to help us make it an unforgettable highlight of Borough of Culture year.
