Developers reassure residents South Bristol tower block 'not affected' by river bank erosion

The owners of Bristol's newest tower block have moved to reassure local residents its foundations aren't being undermined by erosion on the River Avon, after a landslip last week.

Engineers for both Clarion House and Bristol City Council are checking out the situation on the south bank of the River Avon, where the riverbank showed signs of collapsing - right next to the site of the Boat Yard, a huge and still not finished tower block development currently taking shape on the Bath Road in Totterdown.

Clarion said its engineers had attended the site after the landslip, and Bristol City Council said it would be sending an engineer to check there were no issues for the nearby Totterdown Bridge.
