Soil improvement for metro extension Delta Junction

The Midland Metro Alliance is building a number of metro extensions on behalf of Transport for West Midlands (TfWM) and has started work on the Wednesbury to Brierley Hill Metro Extension project. This 11 km extension will branch off the current West Midlands Metro line, just east of the Wednesbury Great Western Street Metro stop, before heading through Tipton and Dudley. The Delta Junction extension will boost public transport options in the Black Country and is a key part of the operator’s plans. The project began in June 2021 and was completed at the end of 2023. The project was a showcase for Bauer Technologies, to demonstrate its commitment to sustainability by employing various initiatives, namely: the use of low carbon concrete, from suppliers Hanson & Tarmac.
