PLANS to revamp Chelmsley Wood Shopping Centre have been given the go ahead by planning chiefs.
The plans include the creation of a tree-lined boulevard along Greenwood Way, the centre’s main parade, and the installation of a permanent fabric canopy.
This will give shelter to shoppers during bad weather, with small stalls and public seating expected to be placed underneath.
The application was submitted to Solihull Council by the centre’s owners, Ellandi Ltd, who have three years to complete the work under the terms of the planning permission.
