Broadway public consultation - december 2019 01

welcome

Thank you for attending the public consultation for the Filwood Broadway Cinema Site development on Filwood Broadway Road. Why are we building?

Filwood Broadway is one of several sites in South being brought forward by Bristol City Council to help meet the demand for more housing across the city. These sites will provide a mix of housing, with new council homes as well as other types including shared ownership, private sale and community-led View from the East - frontages along Filwood Broadway projects.

Initial surveys and studies have been carried out to assess the suitability of these sites for development and to guide the kind of housing that could be built. Some suggested designs have also been produced in order to draw out feedback from technical teams within the Council and statutory stakeholders as part of a pre-application enquiry process.
