Our Achievements

2013: Battery Site: Secured additional funds towards reinstating the Lapal Canal across the site and an agreement with the developers to consult on the final design of the project.


2014: Selly Oak New Road: Persuaded BCC to reconsider the final phase of the Selly Oak New Road and revert to the original route as the preferred option. This scheme is now in build.
