The English Football Association is to provide 100 free buses for fans attending the FA Cup semi-final between Liverpool and Manchester City at Wembley.

Fans of both clubs and mayors of the respective cities had asked for a venue change given no trains are running from either city to London that weekend.

“Unessential roadworks” will also be suspended to facilitate journeys, the FA stated.

“The FA appreciates the substantial issues that are being encountered by some Liverpool and Manchester City supporters with train connections being significantly reduced,” an FA statement stated.

The FA has also promised “a number of free return bus services” for Manchester City fans traveling to West Ham for the Women’s FA Cup semi-final on Saturday.

The women’s semi-finals are not hosted at a neutral venue, unlike the men’s semi-finals, which are both held at Wembley each season.
