A safe journey is everyone's responsibility.

The view from on high as trams returned to the streets of Dudley for the first time in almost a century.
@WMmetro trams were on track on Wednesday as testing started on the new route past the historic Dudley Castle and new Dudley Interchange.
It will connect Wednesbury to Dudley for the first time by tram since 1930.
The town centre route takes in @dudleyzoo, the Dudley Interchange and Flood Street near Dudley's Duncan Edwards Leisure Centre.
Our number one priority is to ensure safe services for everyone, so testing will continue over the coming weeks.

You tell us you’re not happy when people don’t pay their bus fare! Fare evasion isn’t a free ride-it costs everyone. Pay your fare, keep the wheels turning,and let’s make buses fair for all #NoFreeRides @nxwestmidlands #Birmingham #SaferTravel
We worked with @nxwestmidlands on the 74 in Hockley yesterday providing visibity and reassurance to passengers and drivers.

That moment when you see the police dealing with an incident at the roadside & think you’ll be witty & clever by shouting “You can’t park there!” as you pass only to immediately crash into a parked car in front of you and then get prosecuted for careless driving. #fail 🚗 💥 🤦♂️
ALT The crashed car.
All supported by our excellent CCTV team watching 👀 around the town centre and bus station 👏👏
On 05/07/25, St Matts T2 @BloxwichWMP and @ST_Police conducted an ASB patrols around Walsall Town Centre including the bus station. Several succesful Stop searches completed. Team work at its best

#ARREST: Officers on patrol in Coventry over the weekend were made aware of an assault on an @nxcoventry driver.
They were quickly on the scene and after a short foot chase arrested a 16 year old male. 🏃
He is now on bail for further enquiries to be completed.

ICYMI - Enforcement cameras will be switched on this month for Broad St bus lanes.
We need to keep the city moving and driving in bus lanes causes delays to bus and metro services.
