Edgbaston Road – dangerous potholes

We have received loads of complaints about the state of Edgbaston Road outside the cricket training ground. It was due to be resurfaced in December. We have written to the Highways Engineer to find out why it wasn’t done and get it back on the list as a matter of urgency.
This video shows how vehicles are having to negotiate the potholes, the broken grit from them is being spread across the cycle lane causing further danger.

Highways Investment Programme for Moseley 2025/2026

We have received details of the road surfacing programme to take place in Moseley ward between now and March 2026. See the chart below for details and dates.
This is a welcome investment in our highways, especially as it includes Springfield Road, Wake Green Road (from Yardley Wood Road to Church Road) and Moor Green Lane (from Yew Tree Road to Dads Lane), but we are disappointed there are no footways included in Moseley for re-surfacing and neither have we been allocated any schemes for upgrade to LED streetlights.

One pedestrian crossing, Wake Green Road at Grove Avenue is also on the list to be upgraded.
