Brownhills Regeneration
Project description
The Strategic Regeneration Framework (SRF) identifies several projects for Brownhills:
- food and retail
- traffic improvements
- public transport and pedestrian access
A housing Masterplan has identified three canalside mixed tenure schemes that would provide over 200 new properties with a mixture of three-storey apartments, one and two bedroom flats and four bedroom detached homes. Housing developments in three areas of High Street could lead to the building of nearly 300 new homes. These would include four-storey apartments, one and two bedroom flats and three bedroom semis. More than 60 flats would be cleared to make way for the new homes.
The local Project Reference Group in partnership with the council and our key partners Walsall Housing Group (whg) commissioned LDA Design consultants to develop an Environmental Strategy for the area that 'builds upon' the work of the housing Masterplan and the recent improvements in the area.
Investment for local people
Regeneration of Brownhills will provide high quality developments that offer local people a pleasant place to live and shop, and allow them to enjoy the local market, open spaces and its canal.
