We’re not sure if the conditions of carriage on the West Midlands Metro allow bunnies to travel but the next few weeks will see Easter Bunnies hitching a ride on the network and anyone who spots them will be within in a chance of winning a prize!
Starting on 28th March and continuing until 19th April there will be colourful Easter Bunnies on Metro trams and to be in with a chance to win prizes all travellers on the network have to do is scan them with their mobile phones and then enter their details.
Prizes include gift vouchers, free tram travel, dining cards and Metro merchandise. Each Easter Bunny equals one entry into the prize draw and the more times a bunny is scanned the more chances there are to win.
Elizabeth Cole, Metro Marketing Manager, said: “Each bunny featured on the stickers is a different colour, making it easier to keep track of how many you’ve found, and they’re spread out across the tram fleet. Hunting them down should be good fun for customers of all ages, although the competition will be particularly exciting for families that use the tram to get out and about during the Easter holidays!”
