Juice FM is now available in the Birkenhead and Wallasey Mersey tunnels thanks to new underground relays.
Juice listeners have had to retune or endure minutes of silence as they crossed from The Wirral into Liverpool before now.
General Manager of the Mersey Tunnels John Gillard said: “I am delighted that 107.6 Juice FM Liverpool can now be heard loud and clear within the Mersey Tunnels”.
Absolute Radio’s Clive Dickens agrees: “It’s part of the continual investment by Absolute Radio into Juice FM. We’ve invested in people, totally upgraded the station technically, and of course we’re bringing Louis Hurst to the Breakfast show. Not having Juice in the Mersey Tunnels just didn’t make sense. I’m glad we’ve rectified that now.”
The new service switches on from Monday 19th April, and the station has also recently introduced an updated logo. Radio City 96.7 and BBC Radio Merseyside is also available inside the tunnels.
