Work on the first homes could now get underway early next year.
The development forms part of a wider plan to build some 5,700 new homes at the edge of Bristol to meet increasing demand.
Plans to redevelop the 140-hectare site near Cribbs Causeway, which is owned by BAE Systems, had faced opposition after warnings it could create transport gridlock in the area.
Detailed planning
- 2,675 new homes
- An employment hub expected to create around 7,785 jobs
- Two new primary schools and a new secondary school
- A new care home
- Extensive green space including a central park
- A new museum for Concorde
- A community centre, land for the Bristol Aero Collection Trust
