A MULTI-MILLION pound investment to upgrade bus, rail, and Metro stations across the North East is set to be agreed next week.

Metro mayor Kim McGuinness and her cabinet are poised to sign off on a £14m project to make the region's transport links safer and more accessible.

The move could see improvements made at 195 bus stops in Tyne and Wear and Northumberland, as well as a number of Metro and railway stations.

Transport chiefs are also proposing to fund the installation of up to 166 electric vehicle charging points.
