West Bromwich Central tram stop is a tram stop in the town centre of West Bromwich in the West Midlands, England. It was opened on 31 May 1999 and is situated on West Midlands Metro Line 1.

It occupies the site of the former West Bromwich railway station on the Great Western Railway line from Birmingham Snow Hill to Wolverhampton Low Level.

The town's main shopping centres are opposite the tram stop, along with the town's main bus station and Sandwell College's main campus.

In 2015/16 it was the most heavily used intermediate stop on Line 1.[1]
