Birmingham council approves High Line-style park in Digbeth

Birmingham city council has approved plans for a new park modeled after New York City's High Line. The project will transform a disused viaduct in Digbeth into a "linear sky park" with new bridges and public access. The park will feature a raised walkway, landscaping, street furniture, and play areas. It aims to connect Adderley Street to Montague Street, enhancing the area for residents and visitors. This development is part of broader plans for Digbeth, which include new homes, a nightclub, and improved parking. The project is expected to contribute to the area's regeneration and promote walking and cycling.
