The Living Heart for Bristol has welcomed the announcement by Bristol City Council of plans to pedestrianise much of the Old City and remove through traffic from Baldwin Street and Bristol Bridge. The announcement was made as part of several measures, some of which may be temporary, following the COVID-19 crisis but the Council has indicated that it intends to make the changes shown below permanent. If the Council sticks to its word, this marks a major victory for our long-running campaign. The moves are bound to create a backlash. We call on all of Bristol’s citizens to tell the Council and the Mayor: No Going Back.
