Funding plan for Bristol's Arena agreed
Bristol is a step closer to getting an indoor arena after councillors approved a funding package last night. The project, near Temple Meads station, would cost ninety one million pounds.
Bristol's Arena to be discussed by councillors tonight
Bristol's long-awaited and much talked about indoor arena is expected to move a step closer to reality tonight, as plans go before the city council for approval.
But question marks remain over how the £91m venue will be paid for. One property expert has told ITV News the benefits from of an arena would far outweigh the costs.
