Birmingham City Council has announced plans to take forward proposals for a housing-led regeneration initiative for the Ladywood area of the city centre. The City Council will be seeking a development partner to lead the initiative.

The partner will be required to work closely with the local community to define a new masterplan for the area that responds to the needs of residents and delivers the scale of improvements envisaged through the Council's Big City Plan. Ladywood has long been identified as a location that could deliver family housing alongside enhanced public spaces, pedestrian routes and community facilities.

The decision to bring forward the regeneration initiative and commence the process to find a development partner was approved at the City Council’s Cabinet meeting on 12 February 2019.
