POLLING stations have opened across North Solihull as people vote in this year's local elections.
While Solihull Council is almost certain to remain under Conservative control (the ruling party has established a comfortable majority of seven), there will be a number of important clashes in the wards locally.
As well as voting for their local councillors, residents will also have a chance to choose the region's Police and Crime Commissioner - the elected official responsible for holding West Midlands Police to account.
Labour's David Jamieson, who previously represented Kingshurst & Fordbridge as a councillor, is the incumbent.
For a full list of council candidates please click here. Polling stations will be open until 10pm tonight with votes to be counted at North Solihull Sports Centre.
The full results will be available later.
