Midland Metro Birmingham City Centre closure for engineering works

Just two months after the much delayed opening of the Midland Metro Birmingham City Centre extension to Grand Central (New Street Station) there are to be three weekends of closures for engineering works! No details of just what engineering works are needed after such a short period of time seem to have been released but over the weekends of 30th/31st July, 6th/7th August and on Sunday 14th August all trams will terminate at Snow Hill with passengers wanting the City Centre told to walk once again.
