The money will be going towards major projects that will reshape Birkenhead
Wirral Council looks likely to move forward with a government trial that could see it have greater control over how it manages £73m.
This includes more than £70m of investment into Birkenhead as well as £3.2m for New Ferry improving the area following the 2017 explosion there. The total comes to nearly £73.5m. The three government funding programmes will also become one funding pot with the government tracking this investment as a whole rather than each project individually. Wirral Council will only need to get approval from the government if they are making a substantial change to any project over £5m.
