The proposal also includes 338m2 of office space and 605m2 of retail and food and beverage space. 588 cycle spaces are proposed to serve the residential units and 48 spaces are proposed on street for visitors. Cycle parking spaces for office, retail and food and beverage staff are proposed within the respective units. 39 parking spaces, including 2 disabled spaces are proposed to serve the 468 flats. No parking spaces are proposed for the office, retail and food and beverage areas, though on-street parking in the vicinity of site will be retained. As part of the development, significant highway changes are proposed to narrow the existing traffic dominated streets and improve the public realm and pedestrian and cycle safety in the vicinity of site. It is proposed that Bristol City Council (BCC) would be appointed as Travel Plan Co-ordinator for the development. BCC will therefore be responsible for implementing appropriate measures and monitoring. 4 F:\DATA\Jobs\1089 Redcliff Quarter\TP\Travel Plan v1.1.docx 1 INTRODUCTION 1.1 BACKGROUND 1.1.1 Key Transport Consultants (KTC) is retained by McAleer & Rushe on behalf of Redcliff MCC LLP to provide transport advice for a major development of a brownfield site referred to as Redcliff Quarter in central Bristol. This Travel Plan has been produced to accompany the planning application for the proposed residential-led mixed-use development. 1.1.2 The development site is located in the Redcliffe neighbourhood, south of Bristol’s main city centre shopping area. Formerly an area of warehousing and light industry, the surrounding buildings now comprise predominantly offices and flats, with a few retail units. Redevelopment of the area is ongoing and several new office blocks and flats have been constructed around the site. A student accommodation block is currently under construction on St Thomas Street. 1.1.3 The application site previously formed part of a larger planning application for the redevelopment of Redcliff Quarter (granted planning permission in 2017, reference 16/02349/F, and subsequent planning permissions 17/06948/X and 18/05982/X). Part of the previous application (Block A) has been developed and thus the permission has been implemented and is extant. Block C adjacent to north west boundary of the current application site formed part of the previous application, but does not form part of this current application. This current application relates to Block D – H and K (as referred to in the previous application). 1.1.4 The site is bounded by public highways on three sides including Redcliff Street to the west, Three Queens’ Lane to the south and St Thomas Street to the east. An unadopted pedestrian street, Cross Street, constructed as part of an earlier phase of Redcliff Quarter links St Thomas Street and Redcliff Street immediately to the north of the development. 1.1.5 The development proposals are primarily residential along with an element of retail/food and beverage and office floor space, and include associated car and cycle parking. The key proposed uses include the following: 5 F:\DATA\Jobs\1089 Redcliff Quarter\TP\Travel Plan v1.1.docx • 468 residential units, including 349 1-bed and 119 2-bed units; • 338m2 GFA of office floor space; • 605m2 GFA of retail/restaurant floor space in three separate units. 1.1.6 This Travel Plan will be used to encourage and monitor sustainable travel by residents to and from the development. 1.1.7 This document sets out the accessibility of the site, a travel plan strategy, travel plan objectives, measures and an action plan. A separate Transport Statement has been prepared. 1.1.8 It is intended that Bristol City Council will implement the Travel Plan and a S106 payment covering the BCC fee will be paid. 1.2 DEVELOPMENT Planning Application Number TBC (where known) Name of Developer McAleer & Rushe/Redcliff MCC LLP Name of Development Redcliff Quarter, Bristol Development Address and Redcliff Quarter, BS1 6JJ Postcode Use Class C3 and E The development proposals are primarily residential along with an element of retail/food and beverage Brief Description of and office floor space and include associated car and Development cycle parking. 468 residential units, 338m2 GFA of office floor space Size – no. of dwelling units/GFA and 605m2 GFA of retail/restaurant floor space Planned Date of Opening TBC 6 F:\DATA\Jobs\1089 Redcliff Quarter\TP\Travel Plan v1.1.docx 1.2.1 The proposed site layout is provided as Appendix A. 1.2.2 The development will include residential units as well as areas for retail, food and beverage and office space. 1.2.3 Access to the on-site surface car park is proposed via the Three Queens’ Lane frontage. A podium over the car park provides open space for the development’s residents. Car Parking 1.2.4 Car parking is only proposed for the residential element of the proposed development. A total of 39 car parking spaces are proposed for the 468 flats. Of these 2 are proposed for disabled people. 1.2.5 The provision of no car parking for the limited office floor space of 338m2 is considered to be in accordance with the policy framework where the parking standards are maximum standards. The proposed office floor space is less than the 500m2 threshold for providing parking for disabled people. 1.2.6 The provision of no car parking for the limited retail/restaurant floor space of 605m2 is considered to be in accordance with the policy framework. None of the three proposed units is above the 500m2 threshold for parking for disabled people. Cycle Parking 1.2.7 Residential cycle parking of 588 is proposed within the scheme. Visitor cycle parking of 48 spaces is proposed on-street. 1.2.8 The retail/restaurant and office staff cycle parking is proposed within the relevant units. One visitor cycle parking space for the retail/restaurant unit is included within the proposed on-street provision. On-Street Car Parking 1.2.9 As with the previously consented scheme, the retention of as much on-street parking as possible is important to serve existing and proposed businesses and residents with short stay parking opportunities during the day. The development results in no net loss of on-street pay and display car parking. 7 F:\DATA\Jobs\1089 Redcliff Quarter\TP\Travel Plan v1.1.docx Servicing 1.2.10 Two refuse and recycling stores for the residential and commercial uses are proposed within the ground floor of the development with access via St Thomas Street and Three Queens’ Lane. Collections will be from the service bays to be provided on the two adjacent streets. An additional bin store is located on Cross Street, to the north of the site. The street has been designed for refuse collection vehicles. 1.2.11 The proposed highway works also accommodate a lay-by for coaches in association with the hotel development consented on Block C immediately adjacent to the application site (fronting onto St Thomas Street. 1.2.12 All lay-bys will be integrated into the streetscape to minimise their impact. 8 F:\DATA\Jobs\1089 Redcliff Quarter\TP\Travel Plan v1.1.docx 2 POLICY 2.1 The relevant Travel Plan policies are: National Planning Policy Framework (February 2019) 2.2 Paragraph 103 of NPPF states: “Significant development should be focused on locations which are or can be made sustainable, through limiting the need to travel and offering a genuine choice of transport modes. This can help to reduce congestion and emissions, and improve air quality and public health.” 2.3 Paragraph 111 states “All developments that will generate significant amounts of movement should be required to provide a travel plan, and the application should be supported by a transport statement or transport assessment so that the likely impacts of the proposal can be assessed.” Bristol City Council Core Strategy (June 2011) 2.4 Core Strategy Policy BCS10 Transport and Access Improvements includes the following: “The council will support the delivery of significant improvements to transport infrastructure to provide an integrated transport system, which improves accessibility within Bristol and supports the proposed levels of development.” Bristol City Council Site Allocations and Development Management Policies (July 2014) 2.5 Policy DM23 covers Transport Development Management.

    Friends of Suburban Bristol Railways (FoSBR) Statement to WECA Joint Committee Friday 25th June 2021 at 11.15 am 1. Welcome to Dan Norris The Friends of Suburban Bristol Railways would like to congratulate Dan Norris on his recent election as WECA Mayor. We are pleased to see that, in his election manifesto, he attached importance to ‘creating a transport system for the 21st century, to include green and reliable buses, trains, and walking and cycling options to connect our region’. Transport is an important concern to many in this region and we are pleased that he will be taking an active interest in trying to improve the situation. 2. Road Building is not the answer Along with other transport and environmental campaigners, we consider that there is still too much emphasis on the creation of more road space. A recent example is the plan by South Gloucestershire Council to ‘improve’ a 7km stretch of the A4174 between Emersons Green and Longwell Green. The plans would see five roundabouts widened or converted to ‘throughabouts’, with an estimated cost of £30 million. It is now well understood that increasing road capacity is only a temporary fix for congestion – and, after a short time, traffic will build up again to saturate the newly available road space. We strongly object to this proposal and will campaign for this money to be used instead to improve public transport, including rail services. We note that Mayor Norris has also criticised these plans. 3. We need an Integrated Transport Authority Turning again to Mayor Norris’s manifesto, he states that ‘Access to public transport remains poor across the West of England.

  • Summary of Comments - Lets Talk About Supported Transport
    APPENDIX C(1) Summary of comments - Lets talk about Supported Transport Aim of the consultation The consultation sought to engage a range of stakeholders in a debate about the savings the council needs to make with its spending on supported transport services and the opportunities to reconfigure these services following a tendering process and a reflection on some of the recent changes e.g. concessionary bus passes for older people. The consultation ran from 1 March 2011 and closed on 11 May – a period of just over 9 weeks. How was the consultation conducted The council used multiple channels to get the message out that it was seeking to engage people on these issues. The channels used were: • Press release • Leaflets on all buses, community transport vehicles, in doctors surgeries and newsagents • Posters at Park & Ride sites • A listing on the council’s Consultation Finder which details all the council’s consultation in one place on the internet: www.bristol.gov.uk/consultationfinder • Twitter • Facebook • Informed existing operators of supported transport services • Emails to equalities fora / letter to Bristol Older People’s Forum • Posters and information packs to all the council’s libraries In order to have an informed public debate about these issues, the ASK Bristol discussion site was used which gave an overview of the challenge and opportunities facing the council with these services. The site also allowed people to access detailed passenger, expenditure and subsidy information to help participants make an informed contribution to the debate. This information can be seen at: http://askbristol.wordpress.com/2011/03/02/lets-talk-about- supported-transport-services/ Access for those people NOT online For those people without internet access, paper copies of a briefing paper were sent to the council’s libraries along with a paper feedback form.

The Bristol City Council (BCC) owned P&R site currently offers 580 car parking spaces and borders undeveloped council land that would allow provision for a further 270 spaces. The rail platform would sit across the boundary between the existing P&R car park and the currently undeveloped adjacent land. The new facility would be a category ‘F’ un-manned station consisting of a single platform (c105m) serving a single, bi-directional track and would be capable of receiving 3-carriage trains with passive provision for 5-carriage models. It is expected that the facility would start receiving trains in May 2019 providing access to a 40min service frequency with an aspiration that this increases to ½ hourly as part of wider MetroWest Phase 1 improvements. Passengers will benefit from an improved onsite amenity building, basic shelter, a customer information screen and cycle parking. The station will be covered by CCTV, have appropriate levels of lighting and will be connected to the existing car park by an Equality Act compliant accessible ramp.

These lack of services are now severe hardship and isolation. WECA have a duty to provide a bus strategy and then to commission such services. This is a particular issue in rural communities such as the 179 which runs from Bath to Midsummer Norton which have no evening, Saturday or Sunday services. In Bristol the 36 and 96 have no evening or Sunday services. Also there are still gaps in provision that need addressing. Since the creation of the Combined Authority the powers and duties have transferred so we need to see adequate provision of services by the Combined Authority and the budget spent. There are also duties to work closely on cross boundary services especially with North Somerset. We also wish to see a prompt resolution to the MetroBus provision on the South Bristol loop. We welcome the T3 service at Bristol Parkway but the MetroBus infrastructure needs to be built rapidly as the service has started running.

Construction of new pedestrian bridge linking the former Filton Airfield and the Brabazon Hangar site over the Henbury railway line, including associated demolition, earthworks and landscaping. Response: Final Response 1.0 PREAMBLE 1.1 The above proposals have the potential to generate severe and substantial traffic impacts that require to be comprehensively addressed and therefore minimised. This is in the interests of: tackling congestion and the consequent effects this would have on air quality and public health; the environmental quality of the wider area and the immediate impacts that would be felt by local residents and businesses. 1.2 The critical policy requirement is therefore the reduction of the above impacts through the early and targeted delivery of effective and robust travel options that effectively mandate as many of the maximum 17,000 spectators and employees as is possible to reach the site by means other than the private car.
