Southgate Redevelopment Project

Street Scene
View of Southgate Development

The Southgate project is one of a number of Major Developments that will affect Bath & North East Somerset in the future.

Planning approval was granted in 2003 for the re-development of the southern part of the Bath retail centre and associated transportation improvements. The scheme will include a mix of new shops, leisure facilities, restaurants and homes, all served by a modern public transport hub and set within a series of newly designed streets and public squares.

The redevelopment site comprises the existing SouthGate Centre, Ham Gardens car park, Bath Spa railway station and car park, the bus station, the former Co-op Dairy building, and the partly vacant and under-utilised buildings fronting Dorchester Street and backing onto the River Avon, including Churchill House. To assist and ensure there are no land assembly impediments a Compulsory Purchase Order was made by Bath & North East Somerset Council, to acquire all the land and rights necessary for the scheme to proceed.

Phased construction of the new Southgate www.southgatebath.com (this website is maintained externally) will take approximately four and a half years, during which time the scheme investors, Morley Fund Management, will work closely with Bath & North East Somerset Council to minimise disruption and ensure that the City remains open and accessible for residents, visitors and businesses.

It is the intention of Bath & North East Somerset Council to keep residents and visitors to the City well informed during the progress of the development. This planning website will enable planning related information available to be viewed online to assist in this aim.
