Bishopsworth Circuit

To celebrate Bristol being the Green Capital routes, cleaner air, cooler conditions, of Europe it is proposed to connect all the healthier lives and more property value along City’s Green spaces together with popular each corridor as well as being the visual routes - at least as many as possible.

1 kilometre Around Whitchurch

A mostly road-free route from the south west of the former airfield and now huge Hengrove Park and the dramatic hills at the edge of the city. This provisional map highlights some key points for the suggested greenways in this area.

South Bristol Link: Highridge Common to Long Ashton Bypass

The planned Link Road could be the chance to connect up a number of large open spaces on the southeast of Bristol. Although there are public footpaths in this part of the city and it is possible to walk from the Dundry slopes to Ashton Park, a promenade route would open up this area to a great many more people and give them easy access to large open spaces on their door step. This map can only sketch the possibilities for local people to fill out, and as a framework for careful details of new paths, safe road crossings and attractive planting to green key linking streets.

Kings Weston Hill, River Trym, River Avon and Shirehampton

Penpole Wood and Kings Weston Hill form a magnificent ridge overlooking the Avon and Trym Valleys. The Green Links here would connect the local communities to these memorable places by continuous attractive routes. This map can only sketch the possibilities for local people to fill out, and as a framework for careful details of new paths, safe road crossings and attractive planting to green key linking streets. 1.

A Trym Valley path could be made all the way from the Blaise Estate to reach the Avon at Sea Mills. 4. This section of the riverside is a wide space which feels utterly remote. The informal path connects under the railway and squeezes past Horseshoe Point with its extensive views before reaching Woodwell Road bridge back over the railway. 5. Once past the old ferry slip there is a formal riverside path to Avonmouth. 6. These on road connections need to be planted with avenue trees connecting small pieces of open space including St Mary’s Recreational Ground so as to make a continuous route from the riverside to Penpole ridge 7. The public footpaths across Shirehampton Park Golf Course are wonderful links. Some careful design would make them far more popular without inconveniencing the club and its golfers. Central islands at the very least are required to ease the difficult crossing the Portway. 8. This riverside path could be extended to reach the way up to the Downs at Black Rocks. 9. Links overlooking Old Sneed Park could connect direct through to the riverside. 10. Canford Cemetery offers a quiet connection through to the Coombe Dingle Sports Complex and Ebenezer Lane for an attractive loop back to the Trym Valley path. 11. It is only the motorway traffic noise which mars this green corridor to Lawrence Weston.

The Railway Path, St. George’s Park, Crews Hole, the River Avon and Netham Park

This network links together the popular Railway Path and the River Avon towpath via a series of local parks and open spaces. These open spaces are close to a large and densely populated section of the City which would enjoy attractive routes to these nearby facilities. This map can only sketch the possibilities for local people to fill out, and as a framework for careful details of new paths, safe road crossings and attractive planting to green key linking streets.

The Railway Path and the River Frome loops via Eastville Park, Greenbank Cemetery, Mina Road Park and Lawrence Hill

This series of loops connect the railway path with the Frome Valley at Eastville Park and links St. Werburgh’s and Lawrence Hill into both.

Queen Square, Victoria Park, Perrett’s Park, Arnos Vale, Sparke Evans Park and Netham Park

This note covers a typical section of the Green Capital’s Greenway Project to link up the city’s Parks and open spaces with attractive walking, and sometimes cycling routes. Where links have no choice but to run along connecting roads it is envisaged that these will be planted with avenue trees to “draw” the Park out into its local community as well as to provide an attractive thread from one park to another. As well as street planting care if needed to give direct and convenient crossings of each main road. These will preferably be “zebras” so that the pedestrian has the right of passage on these Greenway links. This map can only sketch the possibilities for local people to fill out, and as a framework for careful details of new paths, safe road crossings and attractive planting to green key linking streets.
