For over twelve months now, some of us, have been trying to get something off the ground, with Network Rail, Birmingham City Council and the local community, to make the walk through the subway along The Pathway to The Worthings.
The tunnel as it’s known and the paths either end are dark and to some users, threatening. Well at last, it seems that we may have come up with a programme, whereby a number of groups in the area can take part in painting a mural, not just any mural, but one, which depicts some of the history of the area. The murals will be painted on marine plywood and once treated with an anti-graffiti coating, will be fixed either side of the walls and a repainted ceiling to top it all off.
Did you know that the tunnel was used as an air-raid shelter and that some people were killed during the war? It really is amazing what you can find out these days.
