Council chiefs have apologised to one of Bristol’s best-known businesses after questions over it future were raised in a big council consultation - without the council even telling them.
Bristol City Council recently launched a consultation to ask people what they want to see happen in the city’s next big regeneration area - between Temple Meads and Bedminster. And one of the questions asked was about the future of Fowlers, the motorcycle dealership that stands in a prominent position on the corner of the Bath Road Bridges.
All the land along the south side of the river between Bath Road Bridge and the turn off to Totterdown and Victoria Park is currently the subject of a consultation from the city council, which wants to develop it with up to 1,500 new homes, in a project they’ve called ‘Mead Street regeneration’, after the street that serves the industrial units behind Fowlers.
