A47 Cycle Link to Ward End

1/2

This page is currently closed for comments. Thank you for all of the views and suggestions submitted so far. These will now be analysed and help to inform the next set of proposals to be bought forward for delivery during 2021. More details will be shared later this year and there will be further public consultation on any future changes.

Last year we introduced a number of temporary ‘pop-up’ cycle routes across the city to provide safer space for cycling. One of these was on the A47 corridor between the city centre and Fort Dunlop.

Through the Active Travel Fund, we have an opportunity to add to and extend our cycle network and deliver safer, greener and healthier ways of getting around the city as part of the Birmingham Walking & Cycling Strategy & Infrastructure Plan .

This new route will link key employment sites at Bromford, Fort Dunlop and Castle Bromwich to residential areas in Washwood Heath and Ward End.

Your views

We want to hear from you on how this new cycle link should be developed and designed.

What is it currently like to cycle in this area?

Are there any particular issues that need to be addressed?

What things could be done to make it safer and easier to cycle here?

You can add as many comments as you like, until Friday 16 April 2021.

The next set of proposals will be informed by your comments and suggestions and then, following public consultation, further changes will be delivered over the coming year.
