A hovercraft was proposed to run into Morpoth Doc and maybe right into Wirral Waters from Liverpool Waters. The problem is that they are point to point. You need to get to them and change -ermm not nice or atrcative and not quick.
A reapid-transit rail line can do the two poinst in the point to point and go further inland on each side, serving and reachinga much wider population. As the peopel around Birkenhead Park station use the Merseyrail to get to Birkenhead town centre abnd right into Liverpool as well.

Deprived of its unique dockland waters Liverpool
becomes a Venice without canals, just another city, no
longer of special interest to anyone, least of all the
tourist. Would we visit a modernised Venice of filled in
canals to view its modern museum describing
how it once was?

A Mersey Barrier gives:
- A rail crossing
- A road crossing
- eco tidal power
- A locked-in river that means no dock lock gates
- A locked in leisure water area devoid of strong tides.
- Ability to move in and out of Livererpool and Birkenhead docks at will by vessels.
- Ships can dock on the now river walls - they can enter Liverpool bay at any time via large post-panamax sea locks.
- Leisure area on barrage - restaurant, tall tower, etc.
- A means of preventing flooding of the Mersey banks

the Menai has 2 bridges. For both rail and car.

They never really -although no angles. The 1700s accounting and tax systems we have did that. It creates periodic booms and busts.
Land prices follow the boost in the economy. That is true as the economy rises. The economy is taxed: earning, VAT, profits - progressive taxation. The value of the land is not and the land overtakes the the rest of the economy. Land values, cascaded into home prices, then overtakes and bust follows. The 1929 and 2008 crashes were property fuelled.
- Taxing what people put into the economy/society is wrong - by a tax on their wages, profits. This holds us back as our efforst are penalised.
- Taxing what people take out of the economy/society, such land value is the way.
Look at Fred's videos. He has a series of six short vids. Well worth looking at. All comes clear.

Fred caclulated that if Gordon Brown had inplemeted what Churchill wanted in 1909 10 years ago, each man woman and child in the UK wold have a increased incomes of £15,000 per ann.
The only war Churchill ever lost was the war against the British Landlords when he attempted to tax the values of land.
People cannot connect to land thinking it is a farmers type of thing. 1/3 of the value of your home is the land value.. The bricks are not worth much at all.

We should have one and most big cities do!
Gididi Gididi Goo.
Such a project would never work as the bridge would collapse under the weight of money carried across it!
A way to cross the Mersey quickly?
