Speedwatch meeting in Castle Bromwich this week

A SCHEME to put the brakes on speeding drivers is being considered for Castle Bromwich.
Residents are being asked to attend an event tomorrow evening (Wednesday) to discuss the possibility of setting up a Speedwatch initiative in the suburb.
Similar schemes are already up-and-running in around a dozen locations in Solihull, with volunteers monitoring the speed of vehicles on stretches of road where there is a particular problem with drivers breaking the limit.
Castle Bromwich Parish Council has organising tomorrow's event so that people can find out about how the project would work in practice.
It follows concerns about dangerous driving on a number of main roads locally  - a recent survey suggested that more than half of vehicles are going faster than 30mph as they pass Park Hall Academy.
The meeting will take place at Arden Hall, in Water Orton Road, from 7pm.
If you would be interested in getting involved but can't attend, call the council office on 0121 747 6503.
