Birmingham bus and tram timetables for New Year's Eve and New Year's Day

Special services will be operating in Birmingham on New Year's Day.

The end of the year is drawing near and thousands of people will head into Birmingham city centre to celebrate the start of 2024.

If you are planning to use public transport to get around on New Year's Eve or New Year's Day, you definitely need to plan ahead, with public transport expected to be in high demand.

A limited bus service ran over the Christmas period, but are services back to normal on New Year's Eve and New Year's Day?

To make it easier, we have created a short guide to National Express West Midlands bus services running this new year. Let's take a look.
