BBCCopyright: BBC
A think tank has called for more homes on green belt land around Bristol and Bath.
The Centre for Cities says building on green belt is the only way of addressing the region's growing housing crisis.
"About 4,300 houses could be built on brownfield land - clearly that's nowhere near what's needed," said Alexandra Jones from the think tank.
The Metro Mayor for the West (Bristol, Bath & North East Somerset, South Gloucestershire) will have the power to decide housing policy when he or she is elected in May.
