What’s happening?

A large investment programme is taking place in the borough of Dudley.

A number of key projects are now nearing completion in Dudley town centre with construction activity continuing to take place in surrounding areas over the next couple of years.

Track installation has progressed considerably on the Wednesbury to Dudley tram extension this year and testing and driver training will be taking place shortly.

The Midland Metro Alliance team are continuing to construct the further extension of the line around the town and out to Merry Hill with works on Duncan Edwards Way and along the Embankment and by the Waterfront. .

The new Dudley Bus Interchange is also in the final stages of construction and will open towards the end of 2026.

In preparation for the opening of the new bus station, works on the highway to provide integrated transport links are scheduled for Autumn 2026.

These works include improvements to cycling ways and pedestrian access.

For further information on the Bus Interchange works please visit Dudley Interchange. 

Travel tips

You will still be able to get to where you need to go, but consider the following:

Could you change the time of your journey?. Avoid travelling during peak times wherever possible. Plan ahead, check the TfWM Journey Planner and leave more time for your journey as services will be busier.
If you work, speak to your employer. about whether there is any flexibility in your hours or if there are any times when you could avoid travelling altogether, such as working from home.
Plan ahead and leave more time for your journey. If you travel, you’ll need more time for your journey to take account of changes and diversions.
If you are cycling towards Walsall Canal. please be advised you will be diverted due to closure of canal and towpath.
