FORGOTTEN HISTORY: Western harbour redevelopment needs architect to draw up 5 6m masterplan - Caught on Camera

Bristol City Council will soon search for an architect to draw up a £5.6 million masterplan for the Western Harbour redevelopment. There are plans for the area around the Cumberland Basin to be redeveloped with new homes and the ageing road network will be either repaired or replaced.

The council has asked for the £5.6 million from the West of England Combined Authority, which City Hall bosses admitted was a “significant amount of money”. Architects will then draw up how the area should be redeveloped, and what should happen to the road network.

Once Weca has agreed to give the council the cash, then an architect can be appointed for the controversial plans. Updates on the Western Harbour plans were given to the growth and regeneration scrutiny commission on Wednesday, March 22.
