Birmingham Central Bus Garage Site - Public Exhibition - Feedback Form

HUB is putting together an exciting plan for the Birmingham Central Bus Garage. The site includes the existing bus garage and car park and has access to the canal. The concept for the site is a mixed-use development to include housing, workspaces, community facilities, and to open up new public spaces.

We now have proposed designs for the development which we presented to the community at an exhibition event on October 18th. We know not everyone could make the event, so the designs will be available here:

https://www.hubgroup.co.uk/projects/digbeth-bus-garage/

If you have any questions, please email birmingham@squarestonehub.com

or call 0121 295 9910.

We would love to hear your thoughts about the designs.

Thank you for taking the time to share your views with us.
