Plans approved for 140 homes on old Bristol council depot with access issues

Plans have been approved for 140 new homes in Lockleaze on the site of an old council depot. Local residents however warned the site has access issues, with just a narrow lane the only means of getting to and from the new housing development.

Goram Homes, owned by Bristol City Council, now has outline planning permission for 140 homes at the site to the east of Dovercourt Road. The area is currently used as a storage depot by the council.

Half of the homes will be classed as ‘affordable’, and they will be a mix of two, three and four storeys tall. Councillors on the development control committee voted to grant permission for the scheme on Wednesday, October 12.
