Watkin Jones receives planning approval for 322-bed PBSA in Bristol



Watkin Jones has received planning permission from Bristol City Council for a 322-bed PBSA development to be known as The Ionic.


The scheme, located within Temple Quarter, will also include ground-floor commercial space.

The building will incorporate heat source air pumps, an electric heating system and photovoltaic panels, enabling the scheme to be connected to the forthcoming local district heat network.

Ben Wrighton, head of planning and development at Watkin Jones, commented: “Securing planning consent for this scheme tackles Bristol’s student housing shortage.

“By delivering high-quality homes in a key growth area, we are helping to ease housing pressure and support a more sustainable, inclusive city, reinforcing Watkin Jones’ Future Foundations strategy and Bristol’s vision for economic vitality, community wellbeing and placemaking.”
