West Midlands Metro Winter: East side extension to Deritend on Boxing Day 26th December 2023

On Boxing Day, Tuesday 26th December 2023, we visited Digbeth and Deritend to view progress on the Eastside extension of the West Midlands Metro.
Much progress is evident since our last visit and it is only a matter of time before it is complete between Meriden Street and High Street Deritend despite the fact that HS2 is holding up the opening of the extension.
We also filmed some of the National Express West Midlands buses in the area sporting the new grey livery.

Thanks for these extension progress videos! I came to Digbeth (from South Shropshire) about a month ago to ride the tram and see the progress first hand. Cant come often to Birmingham so its great to see this update! Seems to have come on since I was there!
