The city region has a population of around 2.1m, urban area (including Wirral) around 1.2m, although the city boundary covers an area of only 450,000. The 'city' population has halved in the last 60 years due to slum clearances, with people moving to the suburbs and satellite towns outside of the council administrative boundary, and economic decline- with people moving all over the country, and indeed the world to find employment. It has, in the last couple of years shown an increase, which looks likely to continue.

I would like to obtain some information -on paper- about the development from Liverpool/Merseyside towards the future in terms of:
- new housing and neighbourhood renovation plans
- harbour facilities , new docklands ,
- rail improvement/new lines , high speed connections
- green areas
- new roads/thoroughfares
- tramways (actual lines & extensions) , metrolines , public transportation
- airport facilities & extensions
- industrial zoning
- cultural buildings
This should be published -I guess- in something called a masterplan or infrastructural plan for the city/region(especially the area from Southport to Warrington & the Wirral peninsula).
Could somebody help me to give me information about this or where can I write to or who should I contact please?
