Evertonians can have their say over proposals for Bramley-Moore Dock and the legacy project at Goodison Park ahead of the visit of Cardiff City on Saturday.
Under the campaign name The People’s Project, a first-stage consultation is currently touring the city region for three weeks, visiting various locations in Liverpool and Wirral, and will be on site for the Blues’ meeting with the newly-promoted Bluebirds.
The bus will be situated within the Fan Zone at Goodison Park from 9am-1pm on Saturday. All residents from the Liverpool region, whether you are Blues, Reds or do not like football, are encouraged to have their say.
The consultations give members of the public an opportunity to have their say on the principle of Bramley-Moore Dock becoming the site of Everton’s new stadium and the Club’s plans to leave a sustainable legacy in L4.

25 November: Birkenhead. 222 Grange Road West, CH41 6EB (outside Asda). 11am-5pm.
