Transport 67
The COVID-19 pandemic has enabled the city to reconsider how
it uses road space. The council has accelerated existing plans
to close the centre of Bristol to through traffic enabling more
reliable bus journeys and also safer and more attractive walking
and cycling routes.
In 2019 Bristol City Council adopted the Bristol Transport
Strategy68 that sets out our vision and ambition for transport
in the city up to 2036. This is supported by our One City Plan and
the Joint Local Transport Plan for the West of England region.

Culture & creativity 90
COVID-19 has had a devastating effect on the culture and
creative sector; along with hospitality and leisure, the majority
of the creative economy is predicated on performance and
production, live and in-person experiences with museums,

ceasing activity and closing their doors in mid-March 2020.
Some venues have only been able to reopen for limited periods
with reduced capacity and have lost a significant proportion of

Despite this huge impact, Bristol has used its creative talent
to adapt wherever possible. The successful Wildscreen Festival

page 10Economy & Employment 98
Bristol has created one of the most vibrant and successful
economies in the UK. Nationally, among the Core Cities, Bristol has
experienced sustained growth in both population and economic
scale and has the highest productivity levels per capita, employment
and qualification rates of the major cities. Within the West of
England, Bristol is the primary economic centre with nearly half of
all the jobs (44.8%) and enterprises (40.1%).
The economic impact of Covid-19 has been an unprecedented
shock for Bristol, as for all cities around the world. While the diverse
and high skilled economy of the city has provided some protection
for our key industries and employment, the full impact of the
current economic crisis on businesses and the labour market is not
yet known.

Affordability ratio: ONS Ratio of house price to residence-based earnings. By dividing the house price for a
given area by its earnings, a ratio is produced which serves as an indicator of relative affordability. A higher
ratio indicates that on average, it is less affordable for a resident to purchase a house in their local authority
district. While there are many more factors that influence affordability, the simple ratio provides an overview of
geographic differences across England and Wales.
