Sprint
Bus Shelter Upgrades
Ends: Ongoing
Last updated: 5 January 2021
What’s happening?
Sprint is a bus priority corridor that will link Walsall with the centre of Birmingham, Solihull and Birmingham Airport - joining the A34 with the A45 to create one continuous bus route.
Sprint will bring benefits for all bus passengers: providing more reliable, regular and predictable journey times, connecting our region and protecting our environment too.
A milestone project, Sprint is being delivered by Transport for West Midlands and forms part of the region-wide ambition to improve the public transport experience.
Bus Shelter Upgrades
In preparation for Sprint, we will be upgrading bus shelters along the A34/45 Sprint corridor.
Utilities work for bus shelter upgrades is expected to begin at the following stops in January 2021:
- A34, Booths Farm Road – Inbound towards Birmingham
- A34, Booths Farm Road – Outbound towards Walsall
- A45, Holder Road – Outbound towards Solihull
The current bus shelter will be removed and a temporary stop for you to catch your bus will be located near to the current shelter.
