Plans to extend the Midland Metro tram system in a single -track loop around Wolverhampton city centre have gone out to public consultation.
The £30M scheme would link the Metro stop at Wolverhampton St Georges to the city’s new transport interchange, creating a connection between bus, train and tram.
Transport authority Centro, which is developing the route with Wolverhampton City Council, is putting together the business case for the extension, which will be submitted to the Department for Transport later this year for funding approval.
Peter Adams, Centro’s project director for Metro, said: ‘The extension to the Midland Metro in Wolverhampton is all about making moving around the city centre an easier and more attractive experience.’
