The 33ft (10m) sculpture gets a permanent home after thousands signed a petition to stop it being dismantled.
Largely made of foam, and lightweight aluminium tubing, the artwork is in the process of being redesigned to make sure it is compliant with building and fire regulations.Thousands visited the bull at its temporary home of Centenary Square during the Games
Network Rail said it had worked with Birmingham 2022, Birmingham City Council and the West Midlands Combined Authority to give the bull a home in the city centre to be enjoyed by up to 800,000 people who pass through the station each week. "There were many stars during our unforgettable summer of sport and culture - but none were bigger and bolder than the bull," said council leader Ian Ward.
"We had five million visitors to the city centre during the period of the Games and the interest has remained at a high level ever since." Mayor of the West Midlands, Andy Street, also welcomed the news saying: "I look forward to this now beloved bull being enjoyed, marvelled at and photographed by local people and visitors alike in the months and years ahead."Follow BBC West Midlands on
