We asked

We asked for your comments on approximately 42 locations as the first tranche of improvements cycle parking facilities across entire area of Birmingham. It is jointly funded from Capital Program and Birmingham Cycle Revolution (BCR) Department for Transport fund. The scheme will start the delivery of cycle parking facilities along BCR Main Corridors of A47 Parkway, Alcester Road, Bristol Street, Lichfield Road, Soho Road and other key routes at additional locations of strong demand. A number of comments were received about the proposed cycle stand in the Moseley area. A number of alternative locations were suggested for possible stand and therefore an additional consultation was carried out.
