I’d find it hard to consider a Pork n Stuffing batch or a Batch Bar being called anything else! And I’d put up my Villa supporting credentials against anyone!

Was it always £50m that had been allocated? Not knowing anything about it at all but it seems that 2 upgraded stations plus, a tram line and the improvements in Coventry feels as though it should cost a lot more.

I wonder how many bread bubbles will be able to fit into the new Witton station.

Any news on the underground bus tunnel from the city centre to the Sports 1/4?

'The £50m is an advance from a wider £2.4bn government transport funding package allocated to the West Midlands for the period between 2027 and 2032.'

Let’s hope they spend the money on the immediate upgrades for Villa Park, and then government finances collapse.
