In the last few years, the historic boulevard at Princes Avenue in Toxteth, Liverpool has been undergoing a dramatic and stunning transformation.

A new 1km off-road cycle path and stone pedestrian footpath have been created within the central reservation [whilst retaining mature existing trees] to improve sustainable connectivity between south Liverpool and the city centre.
Princes Boulevard is much more than a new cycle route - it is a jewel in the crown of Liverpool 8 and an Avenue steeped in the history of both Toxteth and Liverpool as a whole. As part of the redevelopment, L8's remarkable history and community are being recognised in a series of installations along the boulevard, creating a unique journey through the area's history.

The new look boulevard includes inscriptions and installations designed through community work with BCA Landscape, ‘The Friends of Princes Avenue’ and ‘Writing on the Wall’ - referencing key aspects of L8's rich heritage from the many clubs which used to be in the area to its myriad religious buildings, and the legacy of Liverpool's role as a major port city.
