Council meetings and Knowle bus diversions converge on Tuesday, notices show

Public meetings in Bristol and Somerset are scheduled for the same window as a daytime road closure affecting First Bus routes 36 and 45, according to council agendas and service alerts.

Public notices for Tuesday 22 September show a concentration of public meetings in Bristol and Somerset falling within the same daytime hours as a road closure in the Knowle area. Bristol City Council’s Human Resources Committee is scheduled to meet at 10:00 am, with a published agenda supplement that includes a public forum item [2][6]. The Avon and Somerset Police and Crime Panel is listed on Somerset Council’s meetings page for 10:30 am [4].

First Bus said Broadwalk in the Knowle area will be closed from 9:30 am to 3:30 pm on Tuesday 22 September, with services 36 and 45 diverted and some stops temporarily out of use [1]. The closure is also planned for Wednesday 23 and Thursday 24 September [1].

Read together, the notices show the 10:00 am HR meeting, the 10:30 am police panel, and the 2:00 pm planning committee each begin during the period when First Bus has advised passengers on routes 36 and 45 to expect disruption [1][2][4][3].
