People have been seen smoking, dealing drugs and causing anti-social behaviour in Speakers Close and View Point.
Police have been working with Sandwell Council and residents to tackle the issue.
Twenty-one neighbours signed a petition urging the authority to shut the alley from Speakers Close to open land.
Councillor Maria Crompton said: "People have been having problems down there, mainly at night. There has been a lot of work going on by the residents. They want to have the alley closed."
A decision is likely to be made in the next few weeks.
