Details of Bristol Temple Quarter, one of the UK's largest regeneration projects, and the Development Framework consultation which took place in 2023.
Temple Quarter sits at the heart of Bristol, one of the UK's most productive and fast-growing regions and a focal point for the West of England's £39bn economy.
The transformation of Bristol Temple Quarter is one of the UK's largest regeneration projects.
Our vision is to transform over 130 hectares of brownfield land over the next 25 years into a series of thriving, well-connected mixed-use communities. The regeneration of the area will create 10,000 new homes, thousands of new jobs and bring £1.6bn annual income to the city economy.
