I urge you not where it seems most appropriate to start the walk — at Bristol’s first to miss this out! The section from Avonmouth Bridge to Clifton takes bridge.

Sensible shoes are a must. out. The walk is circular, so you could choose your own preferred starting Much use is made in these instructions of compass directions, so it (and finishing) point if this would be more convenient. Many people will is a good idea to take a compass/GPS.

    Sheepway Lane to Portbury Wharf Variation Report (VR8)

    www.gov.uk/englandcoastpath Proposed changes to the England Coast Path between Sheepway Lane and Portbury Wharf Natural England’s Variation Report to the Secretary of State Coastal Access Variation Report VR8 March 2021 Part 1: Purpose of this report 1.1 Natural England has a statutory duty under the Marine and Coastal Access Act 2009 to improve access to the English coast. The duty is in two parts: one relating to securing a long-distance walking route around the coast; the other to creating an associated “margin” of land for the public to enjoy, either in conjunction with their access along the route line, or otherwise. 1.2 On 9 July 2020 the Secretary of State approved Natural England’s proposals relating to Avonmouth Bridge to Portishead Marina which formed part of our proposals for the Aust to Brean Down stretch. Whilst the proposals have been approved, Natural England and North Somerset Council are currently working to prepare the trail for public use and as such the coastal access rights for this stretch have yet to commence. 1.3 Since the approval of the report, it has become clear that a change is necessary to the route of the England Coast Path. This report contains Natural England’s proposals relating to that change between Sheepway Lane and Portury Wharf, which is at the location shown on the VR8 Variation Location Map below. 1.4 In order for this proposed change to come into force it must be approved by the Secretary of State. 1.5 The original stretch Overview provides vital context to the proposal set out in this Variation Report.

It is recognised as a contributing factor in the onset of heart disease and cancer. Additionally, air pollution particularly affects the most vulnerable in society: children and older people, and those with heart and lung conditions. There is also often a strong correlation with equalities issues, because areas with poor air quality are also often the less affluent areas1,2. The annual health cost to society of the impacts of particulate matter alone in the UK is estimated to be around £16 billion3. Bristol is a city, unitary authority area and ceremonial county in South West England, 105 miles (169 km) west of London, and 44 miles (71 km) east of Cardiff. With an estimated population of 432,500 for the unitary authority at present, and a surrounding urban area with an estimated 617,000 residents, it is England's sixth, and the United Kingdom's eighth most populous city, one of England's core cities and the most populous city in South West England.
  • M5 Avonmouth Bridge

    M5 Avonmouth Bridge

    CASE STUDY M5 Avonmouth Road Bridge Bristol, United Kingdom Project Avonmouth Bridge is a twin box girder cantilever type bridge that spans the river Avon between junctions 18 and 19 of the M5 motorway and was opened to public traffi c in 1974. Originally it was built as a three-lane highway with a cycle and footpath also attached. The bridge is 1,388m long, 40m wide, 30m high and spans 174m over the river Avon estuary. There are eighteen spans in all, ten on the north side and eight on the south side. The bridge was built so that traffi c travelling to and from the south-west of England could bypass the city of Bristol. An increase in traffi c necessitated widening and strengthening the bridge in the 1990’s to cope with the extra load imposed on it. In 2002, a painting programme was undertaken to completely repaint the external surfaces of the bridge. Sherwin- Williams was asked to supply a Highways Agency compliant anti-corrosion coatings system for the project that would protect the steelwork for a minimum period of 20 years to fi rst maintenance. Substrate: Steel blast cleaned to Sa2½. Requirements: 20 years external corrosion protection. Specifi cation: Transgard™ TG111V2 (Zinc phosphate primer/buildcoat), Transgard™ TG112 (Epoxy MIO buildcoat), Transgard™ TG169 (Sheen acrylic urethane topcoat). Area Coated: Approximately 110,000m² of structural steelwork. Customer: Interserve Industrial Services (applicator), Hyder Consulting (structural engineer) and Highways Agency (client). www.sherwin-williams.com/protectiveEMEA CASE STUDY System Sherwin-Williams worked with Interserve to provide the best and most cost-effective coating system for this bridge, supplying the paint in 200L barrels to be used in conjunction with specialist application equipment which allowed the paint to be housed safely at ground level rather than having to carry, store and mix the paint on the bridge itself.
