As a business, educational and tourist hub, Birmingham has millions of people living and visiting. Transportation can often become an issue, especially when it comes to parking vehicles.
Residents of Birmingham have previously opened up about the parking and traffic issues in the city and there are even social media accounts calling out those who park badly.
Thousands of parking penalty notices are given out across the city with one street seeing over 7,000 issued but the issues continue. Travelling on public transport can be a good option, not just to reduce the hassle of parking, but also for the environment.
