Planning in Temple Quarter Enterprise Zone

We’ve made the planning process in Temple Quarter Enterprise Zone simpler.

Spatial framework

We have put together a Spatial Framework to help guide development in the Temple Quarter Enterprise Zone. The Framework was adopted by Bristol City Council in October 2016. You can find out more about the Framework and read the document on the Bristol Temple Quarter website.

We have also carried out the following:

• Heritage assessment (pdf, 7.3MB) (opens new window)
• Community involvement statement (pdf, 3.5MB) (opens new window)
• Equality impact assessment (pdf, 295k) (opens new window)
• Strategic Environmental Assessment screening report (pdf, 292k) (opens new window)
