Martin Chambers, Project Director for New Street Gateway Project, and Past President of CIOB gives us a presentation on the redevelopment of New Street Station.
The New Street Gateway Project is a £600million project that will see the 1960's built station undergo a dramatic redevelopment, transforming the dark, crowded underground station into a bright, modern 21st Century transport hub for Birmingham and the West Midlands region. The scheme has been developed by Network Rail, Birmingham City Council, Advantage West Midlands and Centro-WMPTA.
The project will double passenger capacity at the station, relieving the congestion, and be a catalyst for creating at least 5,000 new jobs. The project will also redevelop and regernate the area around the station and will include better pedestrian connections right across the city centre.
It has an economic investment return rate of £4 for every £1 spent.
Come along and join us at this breakfast seminar to see Martin's presentation on the redevelopment of this Birmingham landmark.
