Date: 

Friday, October 23, 2015 - 23:45

Birmingham City Council has developed a new Road Safety Strategy with support from the Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents.

Giving people the confidence to choose walking and cycling as their preferred way of getting around is vital.  The Road Safety Strategy describes our plans to create safer roads, safer people and safer vehicles. Cyclists are identified as one of the key ‘vulnerable road users’ within the strategy, and we are especially keen to hear their views.

Edgbaston Tunnel Lighting to be Replaced in Early September

Ever since the lights went out in Edgbaston Tunnel earlier this year I've been relentlessly emailing various councillors (especially Tahir Ali) asking for the lights to be fixed. I'm pleased to say that the lights are now scheduled to be completely replaced with modern lighting, hopefully in the first half of September, though this is dependent on materials and the CRT pontoon arriving on time.
