We have re-opened!
|
Saturday 21st July
proved to be a very busy day with a large queue forming outside the new
entrance door. So much so that we had to open 15 minutes early! With
the re-opening and hosting our Teddy Bear Day event we were kept very
busy with several hundred visitors of all ages coming through the
doors. All the trams were full to capacity for most of the day. The
volunteers in our new Tea Room and Sales Kiosk were kept very busy all
day.
If you haven't already been why not come down and see the changes that
have been made and enjoy a cup of tea or coffee in our cafe and have a
look at the souvenirs in our kiosk.

21st July at 1.00pm Wirral Transport Museum will open its doors to the
public for the first time since 16th December 2017. Visitors will of
all ages and abilities will now be able to visit both levels of the
museum thanks to our new disabled person lift and carer stairs. We have

also have revamped displays around the museum. |  |

Opening Delayed
|
It
is with regret that we have to announce the re-opening of the museum
has been delayed. Unfortunately we have been unable to get the museum
ready to re-open in time the 26th May.
The new target date is now 21st July 2018.
This is to allow contractors to finish all the work
to a high standard and also to allow the volunteers time to prepare all
of the displays and make sure that all areas are clean, tidy and above
all, safe for the public to enjoy the new re-vamped museum.

After
closing in December for a six month major renovation and refurbishment,
we have set a target re-opening date of 26th May 2018 at 1.00pm.
Inside the museum building some of the changes include a new entrance
foyer, new cafe, new male, female and disabled toilets, new exhibition
and workshop spaces, a new upper mezzanine viewing area and full
disabled access with our new lift and carers steps. Now everyone can
enjoy all that the museum has to offer. Full weekend running including
extended running days during school holidays will also resume on May
26th.
