Plans to build a huge new park next to the Bristol Arena site have been given the green light. YTL Developments was granted planning approval from South Gloucestershire Council to create the new 15-acre sustainable public park as part of its plans for a huge new neighbourhood at Filton Airfield.
The Brabazon neighbourhood, which will eventually include the new Bristol Arena, is taking shape almost three years after developer YTL first began construction. Earlier this year, YTL unveiled plans to increase the number of new homes at Filton Airfield to more than 6,500, with tower blocks in the central part of the vast site.
The development is being built in stages. The second phase of the Brabazon project will see new houses and apartments built on the northern side of the Filton Airfield site, following on from phase one which is known as ‘The Hangar District’ by developers.
