Plans for the redevelopment of Twerton High Street and Bath City FC will be revealed this February.
If approved by Bath and North East Somerset Council, the multi-million pound investment will include new shops, housing, student accommodation and sports facilities.
The proposed new facilities include a community hub, a gym, an all-weather 3G pitch and a new grandstand for Bath City FC.
Developer Greenacre Capital and Bath City FC will be holding two public consultation events before any further developments take place.

The two public consultation events are taking place on:
February 20 - from 2pm to 8pm 115a High Street, Twerton, BA2 1DB
February 23 - from 12pm to 3pm (before kick-off at the home game with Slough Town) in Charlie’s Bar at Twerton Park.
Bath City FC announced in 2017 it was working with Greenacre Capital on a joint scheme to redevelop Twerton High Street, land to the rear of the High Street and part of Twerton Park.
Nick Blofeld, Chair of Bath City Football Club, said, “This redevelopment project is not just about Bath City Football Club, as it should have a very positive impact on Twerton.
“The proposals bring a huge investment into Twerton, an area of the city at times overlooked. This multi-million pound scheme will help rejuvenate the High Street, create new employment opportunities, provide affordable housing for local people, improve public areas and deliver better community facilities.
“The new sports facilities will give Bath City FC, its staff and players, the modern resources we need, but they will also be available to the local community.”
He added: “This redevelopment will also secure the financial future of the Club. Partnering with Greenacre Capital means the Club’s debts can be cleared and we will be able to generate better revenue streams through the improved facilities.
"Without this scheme the future of Bath City in Twerton is extremely uncertain."
“This scheme is an incredibly exciting opportunity for Bath City FC and we believe the benefits will be felt much wider than just at the Club.”
Bath City FC and Greenacre Capital are currently preparing a planning application to submit to to Bath and North East Somerset Council.
