The University of Bath consulted on proposals to provide a new recyclable all-weather turf pitch, multi-use games area, and lighting to the east of the Sports Training Village at its Claverton Down campus.

The application will increase the quality, capacity, and accessibility of the pitch provision on the campus. It will replace two unlit grass pitches, one of which is unused because it is too small, with a full-sized recyclable all-weather turf pitch and multi-use games area that will provide one basketball and two netball courts. It will have a capacity of approximately 87 hours per week, which is a 50-fold increase on the current provision.

You can view the full proposals.

The consultation ran from 26 September to 9 October 2022.

It is anticipated that a full planning application will be submitted to Bath and North East Somerset Council for its consideration in early November.
