Reported via desktop in the Roads/highways category anonymously at 11:47, Wednesday 14 January 2026

Sent to Solihull Borough Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 8686003.

The Balsall Common bound carriageway of the B4101 appears to be subsiding. Approximate location: What3words ///collects.chef.impresses. The verge has been eroding over a number of years and now there is a depression in the tarmac that may indicate that the road surface is being undermined. Please investigate.
