Description
The vision, set out in the Birmingham Development Plan and echoed in the Economic Zones Prospectus, firmly articulates the forward thinking strategy that the City Council and its multi-faceted partners intend to pursue, to make sure that Birmingham remains the West Midlands capital, the UK's second city and a major player internationally.
An important element of the vision is recognition of Birmingham's pre-eminence in the life sciences sector, centred within Edgbaston / Selly Oak, and primarily focussed on the Queen Elizabeth II Hospital and University of Birmingham campuses.
A forward looking partnership has been formed to explore major development possibilities on these campuses (and the Life Sciences Campus which is currently being prepared for development), as well as other sites in the wider Selly Oak / Edgbaston area.
In order to make informed decisions about the potential economic benefits of co- locating health related activity alongside education and Life Sciences on the Edgbaston campuses, a comprehensive study is required. The brief sets out the work required to produce it, which in turn will help in the production of a spatial Masterplan establishing the long-term vision for the area, the scale of opportunity, and defining the planning, urban design and transportation strategies.
