Off the train at Sandwell and Dudley and the car is sitting on a flat in the Bromford Road car park, with permission: leave it, send the size and bay, and an Oldbury fitter decides repair or replacement there.
An Oldbury flat tyre can wait for the owner to come back. Commuters returning to Bromford Road from the train, council staff in the Freeth Street pay-and-display, families walking back to the car at Bury Hill Park or the Portway Lifestyle Centre, can all find one corner down after the car has stood for hours. A screw from the canal-side units, a valve that has been weeping, a slow leak from a Birchley Island kerb strike a week ago. Driving it even round the ring road would finish the tyre.
Leave the car. A tyre driven on the rim for a few hundred yards shreds its liner and is beyond repair. Ring with the size from the tyre wall, the car's location in B68 or B69, and whether the van can stand next to it. After inflating the tyre and tracing the leak, the fitter decides there and then: a small mid-tread puncture is patched to BS AU 159, a faulty valve is exchanged, and a tyre beyond repair is replaced if the van holds your size, in Oldbury.

Flat tyre: the first steps →Flat tyre help on the Oldbury page
Feel the car pulling on Kenrick Way (A4182) or Telford Way (A4252)? Hold your lane, leave the dual carriageway at the next turning, then hazards on and passengers out onto the footway. Parked already, near Kenrick Park station or on a Galton Village terrace? Leave it there and call with the tyre size so the fitter can judge it at the car.
Found flat on a Whiteheath or Bristnall street? Check the other three, then examine the soft one for swarf in the tread, a cracked valve or Bristnall kerb marks. Do not drive it to an Oldbury garage; a flat tyre folds under the rim and is ruined before the end of the road. Any space-saver is slow and short-term, and on a B68 street it often stays in the boot. Bury Hill Park car park or a Warley drive are sensible places to wait.
