Chandos Road in Bristol could be pedestrianised in new plans to close road to cars

A popular street in Redland could be pedestrianised under new plans to close the road to cars. Chandos Road could be closed to traffic, making more space for cafes, pubs and restaurants to install outdoor seating.

The plans to pedestrianise Chandos Road follow a successful scheme nearby on Cotham Hill, which was closed to traffic in April last year. The Cotham Hill scheme was initially temporary, but council chiefs have revealed it will now be made permanent.

More details of the plans for Chandos Road should be made available early next year, when Bristol City Council consults the public on the scheme. Works needed to close the road to cars would be funded by the West of England combined authority.
