Wolverhampton city centre road reopens following Metro line extension work
A busy road in Wolverhampton city centre reopened today after a five-month project on the Metro line extension.
Pipers Row reopened after a final sweep by contractors after the major scheme to lay new track.
Track has been laid along Pipers Row as part of the extension planned from St Georges to Wolverhampton Railway Station.
It is hoped the West Midlands Metro passenger service will begin from 2020.
Which routes will be open?
Traffic will be able to enter or leave Pipers Row from Tower Street, Castle Street, Queen Street and Berry Street.
But vehicles accessing Pipers Row from the right-hand turn on Bilston Street will need to follow a diversion via St Georges Parade and Garrick Street before turning left into Pipers Row at Bilston Street.
The diversion will no longer go via Market Street.
