Metro services hit with delays after signal failure
Sunday was a day of delay on the Metro for passengers heading towards the northern terminal.
Ticket holders were initially told via a message on West Midlands Metro social accounts at around 8.30am that trams were unable to stop between The Royal and Wolverhampton due to a signal failure.
Trams were running between The Royal and Edgbaston Village only.
This was seemingly resolved within an hour, with only some residual delays.
But the good news was not to last - an update at 3pm said: "Due to operational issues trams will be operating between The Royal & Edgbaston Village only until further notice."
Tram users were told their tickets and passes would be valid on National Express West Midlands Bus 79.
A later notice by West Midlands Metro informed passengers that services to the station and Pipers Row would be back up and running by 5pm.
