The aim of the event is to to inform you of SMBC’s interim findings. SMBC are also hoping other agencies involved in May’s flood, such as Severn Trent, will be in attendance. No need to book a slot, SMBC’s officers will be on hand to to speak to you on a 1:1 basis. The drop-in event will also allow SMBC to check their knowledge and understanding of the flood event before they formally publish a report into the flooding at the end of the month. If you need to get in touch then please email drainage@solihull.gov.uk |

A review of the bus services that Transport for West Midlands (TfWM) financially supports bus operators to run (tendered bus services) is being undertaken. These are the services that operators have not opted to run commercially (for profit). Transport for West Midlands funds these services to ensure residents are able to make socially necessary journeys.
TfWM are keen to highlight that they are not looking to reduce the support for bus services across the borough. TfWM are looking at how they can use that support to give the best possible service to all residents in the area, whilst pursuing opportunities to grow and develop the network further. They would appreciate your help in shaping the future bus network in your area, by giving your opinions on the proposals and ideas, before any final decisions are made.
Any changes will be introduced from 23rd February 2019. TfWM would really like to hear your views on their proposals and options.
