Willenhall area

We're building two new railway stations along the Walsall – Wolverhampton line at Darlaston and Willenhall.

Willenhall station will provide quicker and more reliable journeys to places like Birmingham, Wolverhampton and Walsall, reducing congestion and pollution.

The station will be equipped with two platforms, lifts, ticket machines, information screens and secure bike parking.

In addition, work is being carried out throughout 2025 to create a network of improved cycling routes in the Willenhall area and along the A454 corridor.

In order to build these segregated cycle paths, a series of highway works are taking place along A454 Willenhall Road, New Road and Somerford Place.

Please check back here regularly for updates on local road closures and bus diversions in this area.

Highway works to complete the access area to the new railway station are now complete.
