The Grey to Green scheme is thriving this August 💐 Transforming previously tarmacked areas into vibrant public spaces, Grey to Green is an essential part of the environmental strategy developed by Sheffield City Council Designed to improve drainage and capture pollution, the plant beds are helping nature to thrive in the city centre, alongside providing improved cycling and walking routes to better connect the city. The project has already had a significant impact on the area, including from an economic perspective with new office and residential developments in West Bar and Castlegate. With an improved likelihood of new sites coming forward for development, we can't wait to see how the Grey to Green scheme continues to help generate positive change in Sheffield.
