The Alliance against the South Bristol Ring Road (SBRR)
- Mike Landen send them a message
- SBRR website
This road (of three sections) is a nine-mile dual carriageway which runs partly through a built-up area and partly through the Green Belt on the southern edge of Bristol.
The road will impact on half a dozen communities in North Somerset and South Bristol by exposing thousands of residents to traffic, air pollution and noise, split the communities of Bishopsworth and Hartcliffe in half, and destroy existing community facilities, local green space and attractive countryside. It will be a waste of hundreds of millions of pounds of public money which is desperately needed to improve public transport, cycling and walking in South Bristol.
The SBRR steering group meets every six weeks at different locations along the route. Local groups covering Whitchurch, Stockwood, Bishopsworth, Long Ashton, Hartcliffe and Southville/Bedminster/Ashton meet separately. Get in touch for more details.
The groups listed in the 'Local campaigning' section have supplied text about themselves. Campaign for Better Transport cannot take responsibility for the accuracy of this text, and does not necessarily share the views expressed.
