Our Website-

1. As for all holders of personal data, the Association has to conform to the new legislation enacting the General Data Protection Regulations. Two new pages have been added to the website- one outlines our GDPR Policy, the other provides a facility for Members and other Activity Participants to email their consent for the WTUA to hold their details and also to contact them.
2. The 2018 NewsLetter will shortly be made available on the website when they can be accessed from Newsletters.
3. The Trip pages (which each contains pictures and movies of one of the trips, thumb-nailed in a grid) have all had their working enhanced so that the contained pictures and movies can be more easily accessed in a ‘gallery’ manner. For instructions on how to use this new feature, see the Trip Photos/Movies section on the Past Trips and Events web page. 

 

Future Trips

The trip dates will be notified to members by email or letter.

 

New Trains being built for Merseyrail

Work has begun on building new 4-coach train sets to replace the current 3-coach train sets which are almost 40 years-old. These will be deployed in 2020. An excellent description of their improved features is given in http://www.merseytravel.gov.uk/about-us/Pages/New-Trains-For-Merseyrail.aspx

 

Work is about to start on re-adjusting platform levels on all Wirral and Northern Lines stations. This will permit level access from platform to train, thus making it easier for older people to embark and disembark and rendering the use of ramps for wheelchairs no longer necessary. The work is being done in phases along the lines and will require groups of stations to be temporarily closed and replacement bus services to be run.
