Early plans for South Bristol Liveable Neighbourhood, funding, community and stakeholder engagement and how to stay informed about the project.
Early plans and vision
The South Bristol Liveable Neighbourhood project will consider the BS3 area, including Southville, Windmill Hill and Bedminster.
Our aim is to work with the local community to design safer and quieter streets to encourage people to walk, cycle and wheel for shorter journeys, improve air quality, enhance the public realm and green spaces, and improve access to local high streets.
We are at the early planning stages.
Funding and support
This early phase of the project is being funded by the Department for Transport's City Region Sustainable Transport Settlement and Section 106 funding, which is a contribution from local developers.
Evidence gathering
We're collecting data on traffic, air quality and noise, as well as analysing ward profiles to inform our proposals for the scheme.
This information will help us form early proposals for wider discussions through local engagement.
Engaging stakeholders
Early in 2024 we will engage with key stakeholders, including local community leaders and organisations, to find out what issues and challenges their communities face.
We will use this information, along with our local data, to co-develop early proposals to further collaborate and consult on.
Community engagement
Later in 2024 we will ask people who live in or travel through south Bristol for their views and ideas.
