The funding for Midlands Rail Hub includes designs for the reinstatement of the island platforms at Kings Norton, which, subject to a future ‘Decision to Deliver’, could be constructed by the early 2030s. Camp Hill line trains will serve Kings Norton from their introduction, currently scheduled for late-2025.
