Birmingham New Street Revamp Moves Closer
« on: January 08, 2008, 11:42:12 AM »

The go-ahead for the redevelopment of Birmingham's New Street station should be given in April, the minister for the West Midlands has said (link below.)

Liam Byrne said issues over financing the deal would be resolved by the end of the first quarter of this year.

Negotiations stalled because Birmingham City Council and the Department for Transport wanted clarification over who would have to pay if costs overrun.

A meeting to discuss the plans is to be held at the Department for Transport on 21 January.
