Bloxwich green spaces to be transformed in £5m project
An ambitious £5 million project aims to transform Bloxwich’s parks and green spaces to make them a destination of choice for locals and visitors.
A range of improvements will be carried out at sites across the area with the aim of enhancing playing facilities, introducing a raft of sporting and other facilities and bring redundant buildings back into use.
The venues identified as part of the scheme include King George V Playing Fields – where Bloxwich Carnival has been held in previous years – Bloxwich and Leamore Parks, Pat Collins Memorial Gardens and Promenade Gardens.
The Green Bloxwich Programme is one of the projects being undertaken as part of the wider £25m Town Deal funded by the Government.
Bosses said facilities will be enhanced with new multi-use games area, tennis courts, outdoor gyms, allotment areas, tree planting, new paths and landscaping and improved car parking.
