Birmingham City Council (BCC) is consulting on improvements to the Vauxhall and Duddeston area, between Nechells Parkway and the railway line. This area is cut through by the B4132, running from the Middleway through the area, past Duddeston train station to connect with Nechells Parkway next to the railway. BCC say that in the past 3 years there have been 24 traffic crashes on this stretch of road, which has 3 schools along it and high levels of pavement parking.
