Metro extension on track to unlock Blues' £3bn sports quarter bid

Sunday Mercury

May 18, 2025

AN extension of the West Midlands tram system will “unlock” a crucial line to Birmingham City FC’s £3 billion Sports Quarter project.

Members of the West Midlands Combined Authority (WMCA) Board this week approved a refreshed business case for sections three and four of the Birmingham Eastside Extension and a budget of £107 million for phase two of the project.

The extension will provide a connection to HS2 at Curzon Street and support regeneration in Digbeth. And members said it would be crucial for the creation of a new Metro line going to the East of the city and Blues’ planned redevelopment.
