Today, I welcomed Levelling Up Minister, Jacob Young MP to Tamworth to get an update on the progress of the Future High Streets Fund. £21.65m of government investment is dedicated to the transformation of our town centre, alongside the new college site near St. Editha's Square.
We met with the great team at Speller Metcalfe and Councillor Jeremy Oates, to discuss the progress of the project so far and take a look at the five key sites. It’s great to see that work is already underway and it was interesting to get a peak at the refurbishment work in the old Coop building. I’ll keep you updated as it progresses.
The planned works will not only revitalise our town centre but will also play a crucial role in promoting Tamworth’s rich history and heritage whilst securing the future of the high street
