Although I can see the reasoning, particularly in shopping and school areas, the congestion is going to be paramount. It seems madness.
As we know , many travel and work in Liverpool, and I can't imagine what the hold up at the tunnels will be in a morning.

Buses will have to have their timetables changed, mums and dads travelling by bus will have to leave earlier in a morning, thus impacting on their children being dropped off earlier at school. Meeting the children after school time, will mean have to leave work that bit earlier, which will impact on hours of work and pay for those who need it more than most, and companies that rely on working hourse being fulfilled.
Trucks will be rolling backwards near enough when on inclines, more petrol will be used by sitting in queues and more pollution emitted from standing vehicles.
Why oh why meddle, when things work well ? It didn't work in Wales, did it ?

.... and do cyclists need to curtail their speed too ? Racing along the roads on a Sunday morning, will be something of a past life.

It should also be compulsory for cyclists to have insurance and number plates.

Cost me my first ever speeding ticket, far too many changes of speed at random locations. I saw the camera but thought I was in a 30MPH area, not in Wirral.
