For many years, Digbeth High Street has been an urban motorway, delivering cars into the very centre of Birmingham. While the area around New Street and the Bullring has become a commercial centre, with a welcoming environment, Digbeth High Street has stagnated with most people choosing to avoid the fumes. This is set to changed with the delivery of the Metro Eastside extension, which will eventually extend from the centre of Birmingham to the airport.

This week there has been much confusion about 2 short sections of cycle route that have appeared on Corporation Street. The Birmingham Mail have even done a story on this, calling them the shortest sections of cycle lane in Birmingham. The reporter did try to contact Push Bikes, but we replied after her deadline, I think.
