Thousands of people have signed a petition asking the council to amend a bylaw which bans swimming at a a popular wild swimming spot.
Earlier this month, it was revealed an application for bathing water status at Conham River Park on the River Avon wouldn't be supported by Bristol City Council. The council said it could not support the application because of a 2009 bylaw banning swimming, adding there is also a right to navigation which would mean swimming would carry a "significant risk" from boats.
A group of campaigners is trying to achieve the "designated bathing water status" - which would see the water monitored for harmful bacteria - in the area. And now a petition has been set up on the council website asking it to amend the byelaw.
