This consultation has now concluded. Information about the project is still available to read below, and results will be published in due course.
Our shared vision for Bristol Temple Meads is to deliver a modern, safe and efficient passenger experience, at the heart of a multi-modal interchange, whilst preserving and celebrating the unique heritage of the station. Bristol Temple Meads will be fully accessible and inclusive for all passengers and will be future-proofed to accommodate anticipated growth. The station will be easily navigated and more accessible from the surrounding area.
The area surrounding Temple Meads will be a landmark city gateway, a fitting welcome to the city of Bristol at one end of the Brunel Mile. By putting passenger experience first, the new gateway will offer a first-class interchange enabling accessible onward journeys to/from the station, with improved passenger travel routes, and increased retail in a safe environment.

The aim for Friary North is to create a distinctive street that celebrates Bristol and complements the improved station interchange. This area will be transformed to provide a lively destination; a place to live, work and enjoy leisure time during the day and the evening. By capitalising on the sustainable travel opportunities, the aim is to attract people, businesses, activity and investment. The public realm will be safe, inclusive and attractive, responding to the local context and connecting with Bristol’s wider travel network.
These plans will make a significant contribution to Bristol's aims to be net zero by 2030.
