Bristolians will have their say this autumn on a crucial 20-year plan for how many new homes should be built in the city and where.
The new local plan will shape how the city grows over the next two decades, including a huge variety of developments like housing, offices, GP surgeries and solar farms. A public consultation will launch in November to find out Bristol’s priorities for the next 20 years.
Bosses at Bristol City Council believe developers should focus on building tall, dense apartment buildings rather than houses on the city’s outskirts, to protect the green environment surrounding Bristol. This could also encourage people to drive cars less often.
