#Coventry's first high-quality segregated route has the full go ahead. The Coundon cycleway will serve six schools, get full segregation, priority over side roads and Dutch-style entrances. All a first for the city.
The biggest consultation response was: "Can we have more?"

Coventry Point is almost gone! The former 14-storey building is down to its last floors now and will be fully demolished in the coming weeks. It will be a dramatic difference to this part of the city centre! #lovecov

Happy 100th birthday to Coventry's council house, which was opened on 11 June 1920 by King George VI (then Duke of York).
This photograph was taken during its construction. You can also see part of St. Michael's Cathedral in the distance.

We've uncovered this mosaic tile in Upper Precinct which is thought to be from The White Lion, which was demolished in the 1950s to make way for the escalator. We're currently working to see if we can remove it in one piece - making the best of the old and the best of the new!
