40-46 Albert Road receives planning approval 28.06.24

Full planning approval for 40-46 Albert Road has been granted by Bristol City Council.  

Located in the centre of Bristol, the project will comprehensively redevelop an industrial site on the banks of the River Avon to provide much needed accommodation for the adjacent University of Bristol Temple Quarter Enterprise Campus, while protecting and enhancing the ecology, biodiversity, connectivity and public realm of the surrounding River Avon and Albert Road area.  

In addition to providing 454 bed purpose built student accommodation in a carefully designed 17 storey landmark building in a cruciform design, the scheme will provide 1,067sqm of affordable commercial space which will create significantly more jobs and, where suitable, re-provide space for existing tenants.

The scheme has been designed to maximise active frontage and provide legible entrances from the street and river that connect to the adjoining cycleway and footbridge leading directly into the heart of the new campus. Two new public squares facing Albert Road provide generous external amenity and enhance the existing green river corridor, capitalising on the available views.

“The team has designed a fantastic scheme, in an excellent location overlooking the River Avon and just a short walk to the heart of the Temple Quarter Campus. We look forward to making it a reality in 2027,” said Archie Lord on behalf of the client Avon Capital Estates.

“We have designed a scheme we believe will set the bar for all the developments to follow in this area. As one of the very first proposals in this part of the wider Temple Quarter area, we want the development to be a catalyst for high quality regeneration,” said AHMM’s director Cormac Farrelly.

The project team includes Avon Capital Estates (client), AHMM (Architect), Churchman Thornhill Finch (Landscape Architect), Deeley Freed (Development Manager), Rapleys (Planning Consultant), and Hydrock (Multi-disciplinary consultant)
