Advertising Opportunities with West Midlands Metro

West Midlands Metro is the brand-new name for the region’s popular and growing network, operated by Midland Metro Limited (MML).

MML is a new company which, although 100% owned by the West Midlands Combined Authority, functions as a standalone business. We commenced operation of the current Metro line between Wolverhampton and Birmingham from 24th June 2018 following the award of a 15-year contract.

During that time, we’ll be working with our partners at Transport for West Midlands and the Midland Metro Alliance who are responsible for developing the future extensions of the network to Edgbaston, Wolverhampton Railway Station, Solihull and Brierley Hill.

The change in Metro operator means that MML is now able to offer external and internal advertising opportunities to local and national clients.

The Metro operates through some of the busiest footfall areas in the West Midlands and carries over 6 million customers a year, so brand exposure is definitely guaranteed! West Midlands Metro in numbers

With over 20,000 customers using the Metro every day, there are plenty of ‘eyes’ attracted to internal messaging. We have the internal cove panels available to use, between the top of the windows and ceiling, these are situated just above seated passengers and at eyeline for standing passengers.

Packs of cove panels can be positioned across the tram fleet depending on the campaign weight. A pack of 42 would cover 2 cove sites on 21 trams - that’s all of the tram fleet!

Other options include taking over all 16 cove sites on a tram to deliver exclusive coverage and long term campaigns are also available. Contact us for more details and rates.
