With a refurbished Bristol Temple Meads station at its heart, the Bristol Temple Quarter regeneration project aims to establish the area as a world-class gateway to Bristol and the West of England that reflects and enhances the heritage of Brunel’s Grade I listed station. A number of development sites around the station are currently in public ownership and offer the opportunity to deliver significant housing, commercial space and placemaking in a well-connected, central location.
More general detail on the wider project can be found on the website for the wider Bristol Temple Quarter area: https://www.bristoltemplequarter.com/
Working collaboratively, the BTQ Partners’ ambition is to create thriving, well-connected, mixed communities that help tackle the housing, climate and ecological emergencies, boost the economy, and make the city-region fit for the 21st century. The JDV will be seeking a development partner that shares these aspirations to deliver exemplar placemaking to transform Bristol Temple Quarter and deliver socially inclusive growth for the wider community.
