📢 Sutton Coldfield Gateway: Have Your Say! 🚶‍♂️ 🚲 🚙 🚌 🚆

We’ve received some information from Birmingham City Council today about proposed changes to Sutton Coldfield town centre, and we thought it would be useful to share it with you all.

✅ Making it easier and safer to walk, cycle and get around

✅ Improving links between the train station, bus interchange, town centre and Sutton Park

✅ Looking at ways to make the ring road less of a barrier

💜 Our lovely new lavender planted on Birmingham Road / Duke Street. 🌿

After the long, hot and dry summer, sadly our lavender didn’t survive and failed to grow back. ☀️

As we adopted these planters back in 2024, we’re keen to keep them looking their very best and continue bringing a little colour and beauty to Birmingham Road / Duke Street.🐝

📸 Scroll through the photos to see what these planters looked like before we adopted them in 2024! What a difference a little TLC can make! 💜

🐦 10 cabinets transformed… but which one is your favourite?

Our project set out to celebrate the close proximity between Sutton Park and Sutton Coldfield town centre, bringing some much-needed colour and public art to our streets! 🌳

And we’re not finished yet… keep your eyes peeled for 3 more flying in next month along Birmingham Road! 🐦

Which design gets your vote? Let us know in the comments! 👇(each photo is numbered).
