Description

Transport chiefs in the West Midlands announce testing for the new tram line from Wednesbury to Dudley, a £400 million project aiming to regenerate the Black Country and improve public transport. The line, initially planned in the mid-nineties, connects to the existing Wolverhampton to Birmingham route and passes through key locations like Dudley Zoo and Tipton. Local leaders anticipate it will attract half a million visitors annually and boost regional growth, with testing set to begin in 2026.
