PROJECT

ND6 and ND7 are residential led mixed use developments, providing 120 and 255 units for the private rented sector, along with complimentary commercial and retail floorspace. The developments form part of the Bristol Temple Quarter Enterprise Zone.

The Bristol Temple Quarter is one of the largest urban regeneration projects in the UK, aiming to create a vibrant and sustainable new city quarter with a mix of employment, residential and leisure uses.

APPROACH

We prepared Transport Statements and Travel Plans to support each of the applications. We also engaged in discussions with local highway officers to agree a number of matters such as the requirements for off-site highway works, car parking provision, electric vehicle charging spaces, and proposed planning conditions and obligations.

OUTCOME

The developments were both granted planning consent in 2018. The ND7 site, which obtained a resolution to grant permission in 2017, was one of the first purpose built private rented sector schemes to secure planning committee support in Bristol.

Following the planning consent, we have further assisted with the preparation of detailed design drawings for off-site highway works and submission of a S278 application.
