Anyone from Birmingham area

[Josy]

Anyone on here from Birmingham area?

If so...if someone was to travel to Birmingham, Hill Street (Bus Station?) how would they get from there to Moxley Peoples Centre?

I tried googling for ages but I can't find out about buses or that and it's over an hour walking distance iirc.

Anyone know how much it would even cost for a cab btw?

[LukeB]

In Wolverhampton?
never heard of that place :laugh:

[LukeB]

Oh it's in wednesbury which you can get the bus from birmingham (80) to West Bromwich bus station and you can get a bus from there to wednesbury(40). The taxi will probs cost a lot. Daysaver is only £4.20 here

it says 29 minute walk from wednesbury to that place so i think they would need google maps or something

the bus to west Bromwich can be found by snow hill train station or on bull street (by the bullring)

Birmingham is complicated with getting to places tbh :worry: :laugh:

idk if buses go from hill street anymore as it's all changed around as we are getting a metro line fitted on the roads.

Helping Brother Leon getting to West Bromwich was simple but i never even heard of this Moxley place and it does sound complicated :laugh:

[Vanessa]

I always take cabs when i don't know the place. I'm always scared i will get lost. :joker:

[Crimson Dynamo]

Its only 10 miles you could walk that in 2 hours if you keep a good pace up

[LukeB]

Yes we had a 16 year old girl stabbed on a bus by a mental person
2 more stabbings that same year

but apart from that it's a good place and safe most times

[Josy]

Thanks Ammi, I'll have a look at that

[Vanessa]

I was there last year for Fusion festival and i had to walk to the hotel in the evening. I was terrified. D:

Get the tram from Snow Hill station or the Jewellery Quarter to Bradley Lane. And from there it is a 10 minute walk.

http://www.networkwestmidlands.com/metro/tram.aspx

By bus - Birmingham to West Bromwich such as the 74, then getting the 79 bus through to Wolverhampton but getting off in Moxley.
Or Birmingham to Walsall on the 51, then take the 39 towards Wolverhampton but get off in Moxley.

The buses drop you off closest to Moxley Peoples Centre but obviously take more time.

The easiest way is on the tram.
