We fought to keep Perry Barr flyover!

Over 10,000 people signed petitions saying 'no' but the council is ploughing ahead without making any changes to it's plan.

Even neighbouring councils said it was a bad idea, but it was left up to us local residents to actually do something. We (the A34 Safety Action Group fb:(A34 Safety Action Group) started a judicial review to try get the flyover demolition stopped.

We tried it all

As residents we DARED to question Birmingham City Council, we stood up and
said we would not just ignore what we know is NOT RIGHT! And for that
Birmingham City Council have hit us with this massive £4000 bill,
why???....... For THEIR LEGAL FEES!! what were OUR legal fees?? £0!

It is an outrage that by simply standing up for our rights we have been hit
with this bill. Please please help us to raise this money anything you can afford would help us, Thank you !

When making a donation this site asks you to make an additional donation to the CrowdFunder website - but you can also change this to zero by selecting 'other amount' and typing in zero in the 'optional tip' box on the next screen.

Please note we are not a registered charity - we've been too busy campaigning to sort out that bit of admin.
