Show Notes

Birminghams Eastside Metro extension launches, adding two new stops and a direct route from Moor Street Station to Millennium Point. The Albert Street stop benefits 400,000 weekly bus riders, marking the first branch off the Birmingham to Wolverhampton line. Leaders praise the project for connecting people to jobs, schools, and amenities, and boosting local businesses. The new service will run every 15 minutes, integrating the city segment into the larger network. Schedule adjustments include detours for some trams, and another branch to Wednesbury and Dudley opens later this year, expanding the Metro system.
