Sustrans DIY Kings Heath have updated the proposals to redesign the High Street. You can download the January 2015 version of the designs from their website (pdf).

There is also more information on recent suggestions about street lighting, improving the northern and southern entrances to the High Street, and enlivening the area in this post by DIY Kings Heath.

An open, public meeting to discuss the design proposals takes place on Tuesday, 10 February 2015 from 6:30pm–8:00pm at:

Kings Heath Community Centre

The final design suggestions will be handed over to Birmingham City Council in mid-February. The designs will then go through the Council’s formal consultation and approval process.

From Sustrans DIY Streets Kings Heath Facebook Page:

“Please take a look at the latest plans for the Kings Heath High Street below and let us know what you think!

The design is now moving into the more finalised stages and Sustrans are currently refining the details of the High Street proposals. We still keen to find out what people think to try and reach an overall consensus on the designs before passing them to the Council to go through formal consultation. At the moment the phase 1 improvements are due to take place on the ground next year. The proposals are still open for consultation and if you would like to submit any comments, feedback or ideas please leave them on here or contact me (Jenny Barlow, project coordinator) directly:

Dates for December events where you can come along and take part in the process will be announced very shortly.”
