Corporation Street is a tram stop on Line 1 of the West Midlands Metro serving Corporation Street, a major thoroughfare in Birmingham City Centre, England.
Government approval for the extension from Snow Hill to Grand Central was given on 16 February 2012.[1] It was opened on 30 May 2016.[2]
The stop only has a shelter on the northbound side. The southbound side has no shelter presumably because at the time it was the penultimate stop before the terminus at Grand Central.
Services[]
Mondays to Saturdays, Midland Metro services in each direction between Library and Wolverhampton St George's run at six to eight-minute intervals during the day, and at fifteen-minute intervals during the evenings and on Sundays.[3]
