Save the Brislington Greenway
The Issue
The West of England Combined Authority is proposing to build a new road along the former Brislington Railway Line, known locally as the Brislington Greenway.
Over the last 60 years, the Greenway has become a wildlife haven, with regular sightings of bats, badgers and slow worms, all of which are protected species. Building a new road would destroy this space.
Our alternative proposal is an active travel corridor, providing a safe, pleasant, off-road route all the way from Temple Meads to Whitchurch and beyond. This green space would become a real community asset and do a lot more to promote sustainable travel than building a new road!
