Birmingham City Council have made road changes to the network in the city centre. Detailed below is information the local authority is providing to residents and businesses.
‘The emergency nature of this situation does mean there has been limited consultation prior to delivery, but we do want to keep people informed about what is happening and why. We also want to hear from people about how these measures are working and whether people think any of them should continue.
