We want Severn Trent & WCC Highways to close the A441 during current works

While we are grateful to the upgrade to the water systems along the A441, we believe that traffic management has not been correctly thought out. The A441 in Bordesley has on average 22,000 vehicles a day; most of which have not been told about the traffic lights during the works starting on 3rd May. Residents in Bordesley are experienced in the chaos that such systems bring and know that this will lead to long queues to and from Redditch. Bordesley residents will have no choice but to sit in long queues every day for 5 months solid. If the road was closed, traffic could be directed to the A435 which provides a quicker and safer journey to and from Redditch.
