RE: The 2 Infrastructure Projects - Sausage Roll - 04-11-2019

Seems to have gone quiet on this again recently. Do people think it's realistic that we'll start work on the rebuild immediately after the end of this season? We've not heard anything about planning permission even having been submitted yet, let alone approved.


RE: The 2 Infrastructure Projects - Derby My Arse - 04-11-2019

I am not convinced that work will start on time either. Hope I'm wrong on that.


RE: The 2 Infrastructure Projects - Sausage Roll - 06-11-2019

Bit of an update from the club.

Still a bit vague on times though. Expecting to submit planning application before the end of the year, and hoping that work could commence in the first half of 2020.

It all seems a bit up in the air at the moment doesn't it.

Not convinced it will start next season if I'm honest.

This will form part of the public consultation process required prior to submitting the development plans with the planning authority. The plans will then go before the Rushcliffe District Council Planning Committee for approval.

Wonder if some extra drainage or water storage is part of the new Main Stand plans? Water storage tanks under the car park that could be used as 'grey water' to flush toilets etc?

In my fairly limited experience (3 major builds of work places totalling around £36 million) the architectural bit is always a bit flowery and once planning permission is granted, tendering is sorted (if not already done so as design and build) and the ground works start really quickly. On one of the 3 occasions is was literally the next day (was Wilmot Dixon). I fully expect the planning permission to be refused 1st time, with some extra conditions required to get it through in terms of local infra-structure.

That said, this is a project nearly double the size of All the 3 combined that I have a limited bit of knowledge from.
Still quite early days though if aiming for May 2020 start.

The club have released some more imagery ahead of the consultation days - all looks very impressive. It seems from the mini-video they just released though that the filling-in of the Bridgford Stand corner has now been descoped, as the video shows it being the same as it is now. So capacity would be somewhere around 35k - 36k, which is still decent.

Looking forward to hearing more about this over the next couple of days as people go to the consultation and share what they've seen.


RE: The 2 Infrastructure Projects - ThePromisedLand - 15-11-2019

Planning on going later - A52 floods permitting.


RE: The 2 Infrastructure Projects - Sausage Roll - 15-11-2019

They're looking at 15 months from start to finish, with some seats being available for use earlier than the final completion date.

It is looking so good!! Delighted we still have the city ground, just better and the big plus for me is it is still a stadium not a bowl.
