Metro extension advancing with beginnings of new junction now in place
New tracks which will take the Midland Metro deeper into Wolverhampton city centre have been put in place ready to be installed.
Work on the extension to the city's railway station is progressing on schedule, according to bosses, with the route expected to be open to passengers by 2019/20.
Drivers wanting to enter Piper's Row from Bilston Street are currently being diverted via St. Georges Parade and Garrick Street while the works are being carried out.
Nearby in Bilston Road work continues on the replacement of hundreds of metres of tram tracks.
The road is being torn up in stages and the old Midland Metro tracks ripped out. New track slabs and sleepers are then being put in place before the road is then resurfaced. The road is closed to traffic heading into the city.
