For a period of around 3 weeks towards the end of October while the line is connected into the new extension Metro will terminate at St Paul's.

Details of this 3 week period are still being finalised and we will be publishing the alternate arrangements for getting to Snow Hill when they become available.

Once the works are complete Metro will run into the new Snow Hill stop which is situated on a bridge over the ring road and connection into the heavy rail station will be via stairs and walking via Livery St to Snow Hill second access or by walking up the Metro route past Snow Hill One and Two to the front entrance of Snow Hill station.

When the remainder of the route opens at the end of the year Bull Street will provide a level walking route through to the front entrance of Snow Hill station.

The new extension means that Metro will continue from St Paul's to the new stop at Snow Hill then onto stops at Bull Street, Corporation Street and then Grand Central at New Street Station. This extension will open by the end of the year.

Why is Balfour Beatty suspending works yet again on the metro in Birmingham.  It is the same at Christmas because there are to many people going to be in the city centre.

At the end of july/early august balfour beatty put up the frame for the bull st stop and no other work on that stop as been done since,

balfour beatty are suspending someworks in september because of the rugby world cup they are saying there will me to many people article attached
