Moseley's Big Plan

In 2010 we asked for your help in producing Moseley's BIG PLAN. Local residents were asked to submit their big ideas for improving the area. Since that initial consultation we have been working with Birmingham City Council to work out a new plan that will help protect Moseley's character but still let it develop and remain a flourishing neighbourhood for years to come.

The last plan was drawn up 1992 and so needs to be updated. This is the first time residents in Birmingham have been allowed to lead on such a plan. The aim of this new document is to provide guidance so the following outcomes are achieved:

1. Moseley is a better place to live, work.
2. Local resident’s vision for Moseley is realised.
3. The neighbourhood character is preserved and enhanced.
4. Developers, investors, businesses and others understand local priorities.
5. Moseley helps tackle climate change.

All of the responses we get will help shape the new plan for Moseley. To see what ideas people came up in response to the Big 7 questions we set, go to the next page.

BIG 7 QUESTIONS

1. How can we make the village centre better?
2. How could we attract more local jobs?
3. How could we make it easier to get to work, school and the shops?
4. What should we do to protect or improve our historic buildings and parks?
5. How can we provide more things to do for young and older people?
6. In the future, what types of homes will be needed?
7. How can we make Moseley a greener place to live?

All of the repsonses to the Big 7 questions have been considered and we have attempted to include as many of the ideas as possible in to an emerging draft of the Moseley SPD. When it is complete and after it has been approved by Birmingham City Council, it will consult formally in 2013. In the meantime, you can consider the Regeneration Strategy for Moseley. This document contains the project ideas generated by the community during the development of the SPD; you can download this document below.
