Improvements that could make Liverpool a better place to live according to you

We love Liverpool and can’t imagine living anywhere else, but there are always things that could make the city better.

We asked LiverpoolWorld readers to share the improvements they would like to see in Liverpool and received a large number of responses.

From housing the homeless to improving public transport and better disabled access in the city centre, to fixing potholes and putting more bins around the city, people had a lot to say.
