Description

The WMCA consists of 18 local authorities and four Local Enterprise Partnerships (LEPs) working together to move powers from Whitehall to the West Midlands and its locally elected politicians, who know this region best. We work collaboratively on many projects to deliver our vision of a more prosperous West Midlands. Please visit our website for more information:
https://www.wmca.org.uk/

This project will be mainly focused on the 7 constituent local authorities of the WMCA: Birmingham, Coventry, Dudley, Sandwell, Solihull, Walsall and Wolverhampton.

In March 2023, the WMCA was granted DEFRA air quality funding to improve the people's knowledge on air quality, and steps individuals can take to reduce their exposure to air pollution across the West Midlands. This will be done through the following:
Installation and maintenance of a low cost sensor network across the West Midlands, focusing on PM2.5.
Public facing online air quality platform - The sensor data will feed into a centralised dashboard for the public to see near real time air quality data, and other relevant air quality datasets for the region.
