Plans in for wide-ranging Bristol Temple Island scheme

Posted on by in News

Legal & General (L&G) has submitted a planning application for Bristol Temple Island, a £350M regeneration project set to transform a derelict, former diesel depot into a vibrant urban quarter.

The development aims to deliver 520 new homes, two new office buildings, retail space, flexible workspace, and a new hotel with conference facilities. These additions are expected to create up to 2,000 new jobs.

In addition to L&G’s commitment to deliver the national policy level of affordable housing, it is working in partnership with Bristol City Council, the West of England Mayoral Combined Authority, and other public sector partners. The project aspires to provide an inclusive community with 40% of all housing catering to social and affordable rents, shared ownership, and keyworkers at sub-market rents.

Tony Dyer, Leader of Bristol City Council, said: “It’s great to see proposals for much-needed new homes and commercial space submitted for Temple Island. The Council has been working with L&G for a long time to bring these plans forward, so this is an exciting milestone to reach after so much hard work.

“Temple Island will be a key part of the wider Bristol Temple Quarter area, contributing to our ambitions to deliver 10,000 new homes and thousands of new jobs across the area.”
