West Midlands Metro is set to support thousands of participants and spectators at this year’s AJ Bell Great Birmingham Run on Sunday, 4th May, by offering a convenient and reliable way to travel across the city on race day.
With trams running up to every 12 minutes and stops close to key race locations, Metro is the fastest and most reliable way to reach the starting line or cheer on friends and family along the course.
Michael Reading-Skilton, Head of Commercial at Metro, said: “We’re thrilled to play a part in this fantastic event, helping runners and spectators get to the heart of the race quickly and hassle-free. With frequent services and tram stops close to the starting line, Metro is the perfect travel partner for the Great Birmingham Run and best option to help customers avoid traffic and travel sustainably.”
To avoid city centre congestion and Clean Air Zone charges, passengers are encouraged to leave their car at home or use one of our free Park & Ride facilities at selected stops for a smooth journey into Birmingham.
Plan your journey and purchase your tickets easily from any of our Metro Ticket Machines or via the MyMetro app.
So whether you’re running, cheering, or simply soaking up the atmosphere, let Metro take you there!
