Centro Travel Pass
A complimentary 4 day Network West Midlands travel pass is available for delegates on the Centro Stand (Stand No. 35 in Hall 3). This enables free travel on all buses, trains and metro routes within the West Midlands.
Network West Midlands connects all public transport in the West Midlands. Wherever you see the logo and signage at bus stops, rail stations and Metro stops, you’ll find better information to make using buses, trains and the Metro easier.
At bus stops you can use your mobile phone to request a text message with the actual arrival time of your next bus and to find out when the next bus is timetabled to arrive.
There is a range of Map and Guides to public transport in Birmingham and beyond. They show all bus operator routes and rail and Metro services. They also give details of how frequently each bus service runs.
We hope that they will help you to find your way around our network and the exciting places you can visit in the West Midlands. There’s a host of other ways to plan your journey, like up-to-date printed timetables at every stop, the Traveline on 0871 200 22 33, the networkwestmidlands.com website and pocket sized rail timetables.
Left Luggage Service
On the final day of Conference (Wednesday 6th October 2011) a left luggage service will be provided in Room 4 of the House of Sport, Broad Street, Birmingham. Please download the location map on the left hand side of this page.
This is to enable delegates checking out of their hotel on the final morning to attend the conference, as luggage cannot be brought into the conference venue.
A valid conference pass must be shown to deposit luggage, and a nominal fee of £1 per item will be charged.
