en.Wedoany.com Reported - The UK Civil Aviation Authority is seeking feedback from pilots and airspace users as part of a post-implementation review of the Northwest Transit Corridor, which replaced the Manchester Low-Level Route in February 2025. The review will examine whether the new corridor has achieved its objectives of improving safety, simplifying the airspace structure, and maintaining access for general aviation between the Liverpool and Manchester controlled airspace. Pilots who use the route are invited to complete a short online survey, which closes on 8 June 2026.

The Northwest Transit Corridor, designated as Restricted Area EGR323, was activated on 20 February 2025, replacing the long-standing Manchester Low-Level Route. This Class G corridor provides a visual flight rules transit route between the Liverpool and Manchester control zones, with a ceiling of 1500 feet above mean sea level, 200 feet higher than the previous arrangement. Other operational changes include wider boundaries, revised operating procedures, and recommended use of frequency monitoring codes for Manchester and Liverpool air traffic control units.

The CAA stated that these changes are designed to reduce the risk of mid-air collisions and airspace infringements, while preserving access for light aircraft.
