Guest blog by Mike Mounfield, Project Manager, Colmore BID
‘Going Green’ is the ambitious green infrastructure masterplan we’ve been working on at Colmore BID. Ultimately it is a toolkit that is available to anyone who wants to use it — perhaps they have a location in mind that could be greener, or some funding made available for green projects. It sets out practical and innovative approaches such as vertical forests, green rooves, and urban woodlands.
Coming up with this masterplan was one of our third term business plan promises, and it was met by a 90-odd per cent ‘yes vote’, which demonstrates the fantastic backing from our levy payers. More than 90 per cent are professional services, and rightly so, they want their staff to work in a greener, healthier and more attractive environment.
We’ve been making permanent improvements to the public realm ever since we set up in 2009, and this plan is a natural extension of our work. But it also sits within Birmingham City Council’s aspirational Future City Plan, which details the green infrastructure and biodiversity interventions at a regional level.
We’ve been lucky to work with some incredible partners on this including both Birmingham City University and the University of Birmingham; Global landscape architect Broadway Malyan (also one of our levy payers); Green infrastructure specialists Greengage; Birmingham Central BID and the LEP.
We collectively need to think about what green infrastructure can we get into urban areas — and this is our BID’s way of contributing to tackle climate change and biodiversity loss.
