Confusion surrounds the new padestrian crossing on Station Rd, Erington. This was designed to save padestrians from having to use a very narrow pavement under the railway bridge by Erdington train station. Shopkeepers on the road have said that they believe it has been put in the wrong place by the Conservative run council and will have to be moved.
From Conservative Party leaflet, March 2008
The campaign to secure this padestrian crossing was used in Conservative campaigning material in March of this year so we asked Councillor Robert Alden for comment. To date we have had no comment from Cllr Alden. We will make enquiries to the status of the crossing, but in the meantime ask you to HAVE YOUR SAY on the issue.
