Frome Gateway Regeneration Framework, consultation 2023
Between 23 October and 4 December 2023, we consulted on proposals to guide and shape the long-term transformation of the land on both sides of the River Frome in St Jude’s. We refer to this area as the Frome Gateway Regeneration Area.
The Frome Gateway Regeneration Framework sets out a vision for the area to guide future development proposals and investment in the area. The vision proposes that the area changes over time from mostly industrial and warehousing to a residential-led mixed use neighbourhood. We propose that it should include about 1,000 new homes as well as a diverse mix of employment, community spaces and greener, safer streets. A key aspect of the vision for the area is to create a healthy and sustainable place to live that is resilient to a changing climate.

In this consultation, we asked for feedback from as many people and organisations as possible on the draft regeneration framework before a final version was completed.
Consultation closed
All responses to this consultation have been analysed. The feedback was used to help develop an updated version of the Frome Gateway Regeneration Framework. Bristol City Council’s Cabinet approved the updated regeneration framework in February 2024. In making their decision, the council’s Cabinet considered the report of consultation responses and their impact on the updated regeneration framework.
As the regeneration framework is now approved, it's a ‘material consideration’ within the planning system, meaning the council will have to refer to it when deciding on planning applications or commenting on regeneration proposals.
