The recent heavy rains has left the alleyway between Bloxwich Road North and Coltham Road a mud bath reports Liberal Democrat councillor Doreen Shires who is calling on Walsall Council to clean it up.

“Even after a sunny weekend there is a section of the alleyway which remains a mud bath” said Doreen. Members of the Lib Dem Focus Team went to view the problem for themselves on Sunday morning following complaints from a number of residents who regularly use the footpath.

The Team has written to the council demanding action to clean up the alleyway.
