Council chiefs have pledged to do more to support the traders of East Street in Bedminster after they were given a tour of the area affected by the Malago Road roadworks.
And those in charge of the works were able to explain exactly why the entire length of Malago Road is being closed one way for two and a half years.
During the informal ‘walking meeting’, the traders who said they’ve seen drops in business by as much as 50 per cent since the start of the works last month, were able to put forward ideas to make it easier for people to drive to East Street’s car parks again.
