Transport

For those who want to visit a greater range of shops and entertainments but don't have a car, Bilbrook is lucky in its public transport provision. Until a decade ago there was only one service to the village and that ran every three hours and then only during the day, not the early morning or evening. Today there is a half hourly service to the largest nearby 'town centre' that of the City of Wolverhampton.

Additionally Bilbrook lies on the main Wolverhampton to Shrewsbury railway line. Station is rather a grand word to describe the Bilbrook halt which is unmanned and consists solely of a platform and small shelter. A train time table is shown below
