It's the latest in a number of projects brightening up the city centre
Bright rainbow lights will greet people arriving to Coventry by train in the latest improvements to the city.
Rainbow lighting has been installed along the path in Greyfriars Green, lighting up the walk between Coventry railway station and Bull Yard.
It comes after a new illuminated water feature in Bull Yard was installed, along with new lighting columns and a rainbow crossing.
The water feature was welcomed by residents, who said it brightened up the area.
Lights on trees have also been installed in Hertford Street and the Whittle Arch in Millennium Place is now also lit at night.
The new light columns use red, green, blue and white LEDs, which offers approximately 52 million lighting combinations to choose from, and there are already plans in place to use the lighting to mark special occasions, such as Remembrance Sunday and St George’s Day.
Councillor Jim O’Boyle, Cabinet Member for Jobs and Regeneration, said: “It’s fantastic to be able to see the lights switched on.
"It makes such a difference and the pathway between the city centre and the railway station looks much more impressive and inviting – a true warm welcome into the city!”
“We’ve also just finished work in Bull Yard, with new lighting, seating, a new water feature and the play area, which opened this week.
"It’s great to be able to see that all our hard work is starting to really make a difference in creating spaces that work for local people, businesses and visitors alike.”
