Rail services between Southport and Liverpool will return to running every 15 minutes this weekend.
The Merseyrail trains had been severely restricted since the coronavirus outbreak began in March.
Passengers are still being advised that only essential travel is allowed.
NHS can continue to travel on the network for free.
A Merseyrail spokesman said: “From Sunday 5 July timetable changes will be made and additional services will run across our network.
“These changes to services are being put in place to support the expected increase in passenger numbers, as more people begin to make necessary journeys across the City Region.”
They added: “We want to reiterate the Government’s advice that for rail, people should only travel by train if absolutely necessary and, even then, to travel at quieter times if at all possible.
“Please help us, our staff and those who need to travel, by not making unnecessary journeys. If you do have to travel, plan ahead, consider others and stay safe. Free travel for NHS staff is still in place. There is no end date at the moment, it will be until further notice.
“Please remember that face coverings must be worn at all times on the Merseyrail network.”
