The scheme also includes amenities such as 5,300 sq ft of internal amenity space provided at various levels, 86 cycle parking spaces and 18 motorcycle parking spaces.
The planning statement said: “A recent study by CBRE has shown that In Birmingham demand for PBSA beds currently stands at 43,570.
“However, with an existing supply of 25,052 beds, including private and university-owned accommodation, and a pipeline of just 6,324 beds, the city is facing a shortage of 12,194 beds.”
