TEMA: Elland Road

[Asbjørn]

Når kan vi regne med byggestart? Og ferdig-dato?

Du stilte et vesentlig spørsmål - og The Athletic (ikke Beren Cross denne gang) har svaret:

The Athletic has seen the planned outline — which will be submitted as a hybrid planning application for Leeds' Elland Road redevelopment — and can reveal that work is set to begin in September.
(men faktisk bygging først om et år, mai 26)

De har altså fått kommunens tillatelse til et 56.500isj stadion, men i denne omgang er det 53.000 som er tenkt bygd.

The plans for the West Stand are set to see it expanded from 8,000 to 17,750, while the North Stand — if they settle on the plans detailed in their outline — is due to be increased from 10,401 to 15,300.

The construction plans for the North Stand are yet to be finalised and are still in an outline stage, which means how they appear in their plans is not what it may look like once the redevelopment has been completed.

Advanced site works are set to begin in September, but the West Stand construction is not expected to begin until May 2026 and is due to last until the fourth quarter of 2028.
...
The hybrid planning application notes that the North Stand forms phase two of the redevelopment plans and is due to run in parallel with the West Stand construction, although it will not be completed until two years after the West Stand.

Men det hele vil ta sin tid:
The plans highlight that the full renovation will not be ready until the fourth quarter (October to December) of 2030, which is when the North Stand is due to open. This is, of course, dependent on the eventual final design of the North Stand.

Dette var et utdrag. Det hele er her

Takker for god informasjon Asbjørn, som alltid fra deg! Blir veldig spennende dette prosjektet, men hadde håpet på at det ikke skulle ta såå lang tid da... ;-)

Before playing at Everton's new stadium, we asked the squad what's their favourite stadium in the world... 🤔
