Bristol Harbourside scheme comes down to final four

Four developers have been shortlisted for the Bristol Harbourside regeneration programme. The shortlist comprises: British Land/Crest Nicholson; Taylor Woodrow; London & Metropolitan/Berkeley Group; and the Trevor Osborne Group.

The developers are being asked to submit proposals for the redevelopment of a site to the north of the harbour. The proposals are aimed at complementing the Millennium projects Science World, Wildscreen World and the proposed Bristol Centre for Performing Arts. The developers will present architectural and financial submissions at the end of July.

The land around the harbourside is owned by Bristol City Council, British Gas Properties and English Partnerships. The latter has announced it will invest œ18 million in a phased infrastructure programme for the site.
