Investing to keep Metro on track

Nexus is investing £370 million between 2010 and 2022 to renew tracks, power lines, technology and structures across the Metro system. This has helped reduce delays while improving accessibility for all customers.

Our programme to modernise and maintain assets dating almost 200 years must continue if we are to build on success.

We have a new investment plan for Metro infrastructure through to 2030. which we are seeking Government funding for, as we aim to deliver the highest standards of reliability, every day.
