Priority 3 - Achieving Sustainable Urban Development

Priority 3 aims to address the significant concentrations of economic need and seeks to generate major employment opportunities accessible to those communities. To encourage enterprise in these areas of greatest need in the region, ensuring that the potential of all individuals is harnessed, will act as a major contributor to help the region to achieve its productivity goals. The aim is to:

• Create new employment opportunities
• Promote the take-up of these opportunities by residents in disadvantaged areas
• Develop a range of environmental measures to improve the sustainability potential of these areas.

Priority 3 has opted for an area based 'package' approach across the relevant urban areas: North Staffordshire, Coventry and Nuneaton, Birmingham, North Solihull, North Black Country and South Black Country.
