Storm Bert update - November 2024

Due to the Met Office severe weather warning this weekend, as a result of Storm Bert, and to ensure everyone's health and safety, the works to Little Paradise will run over the initial dates.

The new date for Little Paradise opening will be the 2nd December 2024.

We apologise for any inconvenience caused, and will endeavour to open the roads earlier if possible.

Open Letter to Residents - November 2024

Last Wednesday saw temporary works between Stafford Street and Leicester Street cause severe disruption, for which I can only apologise.

I would like to invite you to a meeting at the Little Paradise car park entrance at 5.00pm on Monday 18th November to explain the measures we have put in place to ensure this does not happen again, minimise any further disruption while ETM carry out the Malago Road improvement works and answer any questions you may have.

Construction update - June 2024

  • We have started moving our site welfare facilities into the Greenhouse at Bedminster Green as part of our partnership with Bristol City Council; helping prevent vandalism and bring life back to an empty building.
  • The brickwork to most elevations is nearly completed and scaffolding is starting to come down around the building. We have installed barriers to provide a safe route to East Street for residents and shoppers, while we complete the lower ground floor ahead of the highway works which will begin in September this year.
  • We have been involved in a number of community projects including SouthFest and The Big Give. We are also looking forward to the First ResidentsBS3 Heritage Project and Bedminster Winter Lantern Parade.

Construction update - November 2023

  • The project is on schedule, with the façade works now at level 2, internal fit-out progressing to level 4, and windows installed up to level 7.
  • The roof slab is also now complete which is a significant milestone, and means there will no more large concrete pours.
  • Over the next quarter, the scaffolding will completely encapsulate the building to allow the façade works to be completed. To faciliate this and further limit large deliveries to site, hoists are currently being installed on Stafford Street.
