I agree that a city the size of Liverpool should have several P+R sites positioned around the city as there are several potential sites just a few miles north, south and east of the city centre.

About twenty years ago, North Western introduced a P+R service on a site on Great Howard Street opposite the Stanley Tobacco Warehouse. I used it several times but on the day it was withdrawn a driver told me that that, as the P+R was solely a NW initiative, Liverpool City Council wanted it closed and effectively evicted NW from the site.

Incidentally, the site is still derelict land and rumours are that it will be the location of a new Merseyrail station should a new football stadium ever get built at Bramley-Moore,
