Wednesbury to Brierley Hill Metro Extension
Wednesbury to Brierley Hill Metro Extension SEPTEMBER 2018 The West Midlands Combined Authority (WMCA) has embarked upon an ambitious plan to regenerate the region and to provide new opportunities for residents and businesses. Central to this plan is the expansion of the Metro network, which will triple in size by 2026, providing high quality, safe and dependable tram travel across much of the region. The Midland Metro Alliance has been appointed by the WMCA to deliver the Metro network throughout the region. The Wednesbury to Brierley Hill Metro Extension forms part of that network, and will be delivered in two phases. Phase one will run from Wednesbury to Dudley Town Centre, while phase two will take At a glance the route from Dudley to Brierley Hill. Length of route: 11km As a significant part of the 11km route is along a disused railway corridor, much of the preparatory work to date has taken place out of sight. Work started to Phases of Construction: Two become more visible in early 2018, with ground investigation and survey work • Phase 1: Wednesbury to Dudley carried out to inform the Metro designs. Town Centre • Phase 2: Dudley Town Centre to Drop-in-sessions and information events will be held at various locations in the Brierley Hill future to keep people updated on the plans. Proposed Tram Stops: 17 Preconstruction Investigations The Midland Metro Alliance has successfully executed a programme of preconstruction investigation works to inform design solutions. Works to date include extensive site clearance, invasive weed control, ground and structural investigations, drainage surveys, topographical surveys and ground penetrating radar surveys.

Annual Average Daily Traffic Estimation in England and Wales An
Journal of Transport Geography 83 (2020) 102658 Contents lists available at ScienceDirect Journal of Transport Geography journal homepage: www.elsevier.com/locate/jtrangeo Annual average daily traffic estimation in England and Wales: An T application of clustering and regression modelling ⁎ Alexandros Sfyridis, Paolo Agnolucci Institute for Sustainable Resources, University College London, 14 Upper Woburn Place, WC1H 0NN London, United Kingdom ARTICLE INFO ABSTRACT Keywords: Collection of Annual Average Daily Traffic (AADT) is of major importance for a number of applications inroad Annual Average Daily Traffic (AADT) transport urban and environmental studies. However, traffic measurements are undertaken only for a part ofthe Clustering road network with minor roads usually excluded. This paper suggests a methodology to estimate AADT in K-prototypes England and Wales applicable across the full road network, so that traffic for both major and minor roads canbe Support Vector Regression (SVR) approximated. This is achieved by consolidating clustering and regression modelling and using a comprehensive Random Forest set of variables related to roadway, socioeconomic and land use characteristics. The methodological output GIS reveals traffic patterns across urban and rural areas as well as produces accurate results for all roadclasses. Support Vector Regression (SVR) and Random Forest (RF) are found to outperform the traditional Linear Regression, although the findings suggest that data clustering is key for significant reduction in prediction errors. 1. Introduction boundaries of urban areas (e.g. Doustmohammadi and Anderson, 2016; Kim et al., 2016), or on particular types of roads (e.g. Caceres et al., 2012). Annual average daily traffic (AADT) is a measure of road traffic Secondly, most studies estimate AADT on major roads, while minor roads flow, defined as the average number of vehicles at a given location over are repeatedly excluded, with only a few studies incorporating them (e.g.

Stakeholder Reopening Update – May 2021
STAKEHOLDER REOPENING UPDATE | 14 MAY 2021 BIRMINGHAM WESTSIDE METRO EXTENSION Progress photos - May 2021 What businesses can expect when they return on 17 May 2021 From Monday 17 May, indoor hospitality venues and attractions along Broad Street will be welcoming back customers as England enters the next stage of the Government’s Covid-19 roadmap out of lockdown. The Midland Metro Alliance have continued to work closely with partners at Transport for West Midlands (TfWM), Birmingham City Council and Westside BID to ensure the area is ready to accommodate the safe return of customers. A considerable amount of activity took place in the weeks preceding 12 April when venues were planning to open for outdoor service, and, despite inclement weather, finishing works have been ongoing throughout April and May allowing additional outdoor space to be provided to venues who are reopening their doors next Monday to welcome customers again. Just past the edge of Broad Street, on the way to Edgbaston, another milestone for the project was reached last month with the final tracks for the Birmingham Westside Metro extension welded into place signalling that the project is truly entering its final stages (see overleaf). We recognise that every business is different and you may have some specific questions about our activities as you continue to plan your re-opening. You are able to get in touch with Shervorne Brown, your dedicated Stakeholder Liaison Officer, on the details on the last page.

£56 Million Package to Support Light Rail Through Recovery Period
£56 million package to support light rail through recovery period July 16, 2021 Light rail operators across England will beneﬁt from up to £56 million in government funding to help ensure they continue to run vital services as coronavirus (COVID-19) restrictions are lifted, Transport Minister Baroness Vere has announced today (16 July 2021). The funding will run from 20 July to April 2022, and will support the following operators across the north and the Midlands: Manchester Metrolink Tyne and Wear Metro Sheﬃeld Supertram Nottingham Express Transit West Midlands Metro Blackpool Tramway It comes as the government invests billions of pounds to build back better from the pandemic and improve transport links across the country. Transport Minister Baroness Vere said: “Light rail and tram services provide an essential service in our towns and cities, ensuring people can get to work, school or to see friends and family. “This £56 million funding package will allow operators to keep running these vital services as normal in those initial months, as restrictions are lifted and passengers begin to return in higher numbers.” Chief Secretary to the Treasury Steve Barclay said: “As our economy reopens, we’re continuing to support people and businesses – and making sure people can get to work and use public transport easily is crucial. “Today’s funding means that thousands of people across England can continue to travel on public transport when they need to, and regular services can continue as the country comes out of restrictions.” Andy Street, the Mayor of the West Midlands, said: “Our West Midlands Metro service has operated throughout the pandemic and has seen patronage return very quickly each time restrictions have been lifted.

Concrete Pour on the Wolverhampton City Centre Metro Extension Signals Continuing Progress
Concrete pour on the Wolverhampton City Centre Metro extension signals continuing progress August 4, 2021 A significant concrete pour has taken place on Railway Drive in Wolverhampton for the Metro extension which links bus and train with tram signalling that the project remains on track following a return to site earlier in the summer. The last phase of main construction for the scheme is currently taking place outside the revitalised Station Plaza following the completion of the city’s new railway station. The concrete pour comes ahead of the first tracks being laid in this section later this month. Midland Metro Alliance (MMA), working on behalf of Transport for West Midlands (TfWM), returned to the city centre in June to carry out a series of works to complete the project ahead of the line opening for passenger service. Further construction activity will continue throughout the summer and winter months, including finishing works along Pipers Row and track laying on Railway Drive. Andy Street, the Mayor of the West Midlands, said: “It is brilliant that just a few weeks after opening phase two of the new railway station, we’ve been able to press on and make significant progress on the city centre Metro extension. Not only will this extension provide a further improvement to public transport services within Wolverhampton, but it also means that residents in the city will be able to travel seamlessly across the West Midlands. Infrastructure projects such as these are key to the region’s economic recovery from the pandemic as we help create and protect local jobs, and I look forward to seeing continued progress over the coming weeks and months.” Councillor Steve Evans, City of Wolverhampton Council Cabinet Member for City Environment and Climate Change, added: “A lot of hard work has been undertaken to deliver an Interchange scheme which will give our city the attractive public transport gateway that it deserves.

West Midlands Combined Authority Transport Levy Expenditure 2020-21 The costs of running Transport for West Midlands (TfWM) form part of the combined spend of the West Midlands Combined Authority. The costs of TfWM are funded by a specific transport levy of £114.7 million: this levy is paid by each of the seven Metropolitan Councils of the West Midlands on the basis of their published population figures. The councils must take account of the cost of the levy in setting their council tax levels, after allowing for grants which they receive towards this cost, and this is why we are providing detailed information on the spend in this area. More than half of the levy funds the National Travel Concessionary Scheme for free or half fare bus, train and tram travel for those who qualify, as well as funding subsidised bus services. TfWM, part of the WMCA, is building a TfWM manages 12 bus stations and healthier, happier, better connected and provides around 12,500 passenger stops, more prosperous West Midlands.
