Metro depot expansion bill grows by over £7m

THE cost of a major project to expand the Midland Metro depot to cater for increased tram services has risen by more than £7 million.

West Midlands Combined Authority bosses have agreed to increase the budget for the scheme at the Wednesbury depot by £7.65 million - bringing the total cost up to £76 million.

The upgrade of the facility is necessary as projects to increase Metro lines across the region continue at a pace.

Extending the depot will allow for extra stabling for the increased fleet, a new control room, extra workshop and engineering facilities and an improved training academy.
