Birmingham Airport’s Air-Rail Link will be closed for three nights, starting at 11.30pm tonight (November 11).

Services will resume on Friday evening (November 13).

Passengers are advised to use the replacement bus service or follow the clearly signposted walking route, with QR codes available to provide directions.

The replacement bus will be in operation from 11.30pm–12.30am on November 11, 3.30am–12.30am on November 12 and 3.30am until the Air Rail link services resume on November 13.

A spokesperson for Birmingham Airport said: “The Air-Rail Link will be closed until Friday the 13th November. A replacement bus will operate in place of the Air Rail Link, coinciding with its normal operating times.

“Buses will run from Stop NB at Birmingham International Train Station on the ground floor and from Stop D at the Airport, outside of terminal building. Alternatively, a clearly signed walking route is available between the Terminal and Birmingham International Train Station.

“QR codes at both locations provide directions to follow the route. Please allow extra time for your journey.”
