A brownfield site in Bristol is set to be transformed into a new development of 140 homes after receiving backing from city councillors. The local authority has granted outline planning permission for the affordable homes on the site at Dovercourt Road in Locklease.
Bristol housebuilder Goram Homes, and its partner Keepmoat Homes, said it would now work with the local community to create detailed plans for the homes - of which 50% will be affordable - before a reserved matters planning application is submitted.
Ambitions for the site include building net-zero carbon homes to help reduce energy bills and tackle the climate crisis, enhancing wildlife in the area and creating new public spaces for the local community, Goram said.
