Great Run day is my favourite day in Birmingham every year. The city centre feels so alive.

This is good. Currently crossing Sherlock Street here involves sprinting as fast as you can and hoping for the best

Very important line here from Transport Secretary Louise Haigh on road safety:

"We treat road safety in a way as if it is somehow a natural accident. If the number of people being killed or seriously injured on our roads, were being killed in any other way, we'd be treating it as a pandemic."

Yes I believe the Chantry Rd section was cancelled after concerns about parking from residents

Concerns over this were well-founded, sadly, as job postings go online for West Midlands' road safety commissioner and active travel commissioner ... for Β£10k honorariums, working a day a week apiece.

This is obviously a major downgrading of the active travel commissioner role
