The Midland Metro Alliance (MMA) has delivered several major tramway extensions across the West Midlands, including the Birmingham Westside, Birmingham Eastside, Wolverhampton City Centre and Wednesbury to Brierley Hill extensions. These projects support regional connectivity, regeneration and sustainable transport objectives. This paper examines the development of the traffic signal strategy for the Bull Street/Corporation Street tram delta junction. It focuses on the operational challenges associated with integrating tram priority, pedestrian facilities, bus movements and tram point control, while maintaining a safe and efficient operation for all users.
