City Centre – Bedminster Bridges Outline Business Case and Construction Delivery
To seek approval to submit the Bedminster
Bridges Outline Business Case (OBC) to the West of England Combined
Authority (WECA) to secure funding to continue development of the
project up to full business case (FBC) stage and subject to
approval to take all steps required to accept and spend the
funding, and to procure and award the necessary contracts for this
project up to FBC (which may be over the key decision threshold),
in-line with the procurement routes and maximum budget envelopes
outlined in the report.
To delegate authority to approve the subsequent FBC to the
Executive Director for Growth and Regeneration in consultation with
Chair of the Transport and Connectivity Committee.
To seek approval to commence physical works after OBC approval in
parallel to seeking FBC approval and therefore seek approval to

development and delivery of the Bedminster Bridges Project (part of
the City Centre Scheme).
