Druids Heath Reboot: £1bn Plan Clears Way for 3,500 Homes and a New High Street
Birmingham City Council has granted outline consent for the £1bn regeneration of the Druids Heath estate, unlocking a long-term masterplan.
The plan will deliver 3,500 homes and a comprehensive renewal of this south Birmingham community. Around 1,785 homes — 51% of the total — are set to be affordable, with 400 for social rent in the first phase.
The proposals include a new local high street, later-living homes, sports and community facilities, generous green spaces, and upgraded transport links.
