Your council is Sandwell Metropolitan Borough Council. Here’s what to know locally, and where to go if someone blocks your drive.
Local parking
The A41 Birmingham Road and several other West Bromwich roads are red routes, and Sandwell Council says some of these restrictions affect match day parking for West Bromwich Albion and away fans at The Hawthorns. Sandwell only offers H bar markings across driveways to Blue Badge holders who live at the address, with a £110 non-refundable assessment fee.

“The guys at Wentworth Driveway security where quick to respond and clean and tidy when carrying out the install noting was a issue for them and fully transparent with the invoice even come on a Sunday to carry out the install highly recommended”
“From my initial contact with Wentworth Driveway Security Bollards until the work was completed (the next day, as it happened) I have been very impressed by their efficiency, helpfulness and friendly pleasant approach - both by phone and on site. Thank you.”
“Contacted James who was very helpful and advised the best solution to secure our property using telescopic bollards. We arranged a date and the work was carried out to an extremely good standard, very neat and the bollards work exactly as we hoped.”
