Bristol Temple Meads will get upgraded entrances as part of the investment

Roughly 130 ha of brownfield land will be developed by a partnership of Bristol city council, Homes England, Network Rail and the West of England Combined Authority.

The funds will also support the creation of three new or upgraded station entrances to the north, south and east of Temple Meads, connecting areas neighbouring the station.

The 拢95m funding package will unlock the first part of the scheme, with plans to develop 57 ha across St Philip鈥檚 Marsh in phase two.
