Surely containers should be moved by rail and not by road. Why connect the container terminal to the M62 which is already over-loaded. Rail freight produces less pollution than by road and takes up less land space. I used to live in Crosby and later in Maghull.

During my stroll along the canal on Saturday to the Cathedral for
a gathering of 'environmentalists' for a service prior to COP26
I passed under the rusting railway bridge of the dock goods line
that is 300yds from the congested A5063 by the Litherland Tesco.
The line continued to the Ormskiirk line that passes just 50 yards
from the M57/58 junction and half a mile from the old Cheshire line.
Happy days when the docks were thriving.
Worth consideration as it is just goods that need shifting at night
and I am sure Tesco and the adjacent industrial estates would chip in.
