“Good afternoon and welcome to this meeting of the Environment, Transport & Sustainability Committee. I’d like to inform those present that this meeting is being webcast live and will be capable of repeated viewing

I’m pleased to say that the Coast to Capital Investment Committee will be recommending their board approves funding for the next stage of the Valley Gardens, a project that has been the subject of much discussion at the meetings of this committee and beyond. I would like to personally thank Members for their input that has helped refine and improve the scheme.

Valley Gardens is a key part of our commitment to improve the city’s environment and make the city more sustainable for everyone and contributes to our collective aim to be carbon neutral by 2030.

We will continue to engage with all stakeholders and the wider public to ensure the success of Phase 3 of the project. Their views will be used to help create a safe accessible space for everyone while providing the infrastructure needed to meet the pace and scale of the city’s environmental challenges.

When complete, the Valley Gardens project will improve road safety and ease of movement through the area, as well as create an exciting and attractive destination for visitors to spend time in with new landscaping, planting and public squares”.
