Press release on Metro expansion

"West Midlands Metro has said it would expand in the future to serve more than 80 tram stops, connect 20 transport interchanges and link Wolverhampton, Birmingham, Dudley, Birmingham Airport, the NEC and HS2.

On Wednesday, Mr Street signed a UK steel charter certificate to support the West Midlands and UK-based steel industry.

West Midlands Combined Authority said in signing the agreement, it was making a commitment to buying UK-made steel for its future construction projects wherever feasible.  

Marcegaglia UK has just refurbished its Oldbury production base and is undertaking a £32m investment programme.

Up to 70 new jobs have been projected in the West Midlands region, on top of the 175 the company already employs".
