Inconsiderate problem parking in South Parade opposite Plants brook School.

Picture taken yesterday afternoon by concerned residents and parents worried about safety of their children and the community. Not to mention pedestrians with mobility issues trying to use footpath

Following numerous complaints I have been in contact with Broadleaf Academy , that runs Plantsbrook school and Town Middle school who will be writing to parents. There were still spaces available on South Parade car park!

Action has been requested from the police and traffic wardens.

Residents and parents can also report inconsiderate/dangerous parking by telephoning 101 or on Operation snap link https://www.westmidlands.police.uk/police-forces/west-midlands-police/areas/campaigns/campaigns/operation-snap/

Cancer Support Bus Tesco Car park at Princess Alice Park 9.30 to 3.30 on 15th September 2026.

Early diagnosis of cancer is vital; detecting a problem early on can mean that treatment is more effective.

Cancer experts will be visiting locations across Birmingham, the Black Country and Solihull on a bus dedicated to providing health checks and important screening information about cancer.

The bus aims to give our local communities the opportunity to not only catch any warning signs of cancer as early as possible, but it will also be a chance for people to talk to a host of professionals, from the NHS to MacMillan Cancer Support and Diabetes UK.

For more information see link

At the cancer bus, NHS staff and our partners will share signs to look out for, how to live the healthiest possible life and signpost you to useful services.

Another day and another set of Temporary Traffic Lights this time Anchorage Road.

Work started today by South staff waterworks and the lights will be in place until 9th September.
Whilst I was pleased to get High Street back to normal on Saturday,we are now suffering on another key link route to the north of the Town .
Will be asking officers why no work is being done on the fenced off area just you enter King Edwards Square from High street, as the two issues in same area will cause some problems!
