On 23 January 2024, Cabinet approved decision to accept £600k in CRSTS funding from WECA.
Original commission under the Bristol City Council-Strategic Partnership Initiative with contract value of circa £72k for Phase 1 (feasibility study) of the SBLN Project was completed in March 2024.
The decision is to approve additional funding for development of the draft Full Business Case and preliminary designs by April 2025.

Decision:

Approval of expenditure of £273,049.70 for Phase 2 Stage 1 of the South Bristol Liveable Neighbourhoods project to enable development of the draft Full Business Case and preliminary designs via the Bristol City Council-Strategic Partnership Initiative.

Alternative options considered:

Option 1 - Alternative option is to wait for a single funding decision for the entire project, but this is not practical and will delay progress on the full business case with negative impacts on delivery of the project before the CRSTS funding/spending deadline of March 2027.
