WBHE Four Options

 THE FOUR OPTIONS

1. Terminate the trams in Dudley town centre with Phase 1 complete and cancel Phase 2.  The best for climate.
2. Do Phase 2 when you have all the money - to Cottage Street.  The most expensive in terms of money and in worsening your declared climate emergency.
3. Terminate Phase 2 at Level Street, halfway between the shops and the Waterfront.  Saves building the second canal bridge and 400 m viaduct.  Saves money and greenhouse gas emissions.
4. Build Phase 2 so the trams stay on the railway line to connect with the national railway network at Stourbridge Jct and run the freight trains at night.  Saves building both canal bridges and the viaduct.  Saves money and greenhouse gas emissions.
