Birmingham ~ change and development
A City for People is about the challenges faced by cities in their efforts to become better places for people to live and work.
Development in Birmingham is a case study to exemplify the issues that arise in most cities during times of change. Housing, industry, employment, city centre re-development, links with the wider world, and urban transport are all featured.
