Since my Season Ticket is at the back of the Fratton End I have been asked to take part in a survey. Here are some details of the proposals:
"Rail seating is a form of stadium seating comprising fold-down seats within high metal frames that can be used as rails by spectators standing behind without compromising safety.
The implementation of rail seating is necessary to resolve
the issue of persistent standing in certain areas of Fratton Park, which if not
resolved, could result in the safety authorities making cuts to the capacity of
the stadium.
This is a phased project over the next two seasons that would
ultimately affect 1,500 Fratton End seats that are located in rows AA-NN.
The first phase will see the introduction of rail seating in
the back five rows of the Fratton End, which is scheduled to be completed in
August 2023, subject to a licence from the safety authorities. The rest of
the work in these areas will be implemented in stages and is scheduled to be
completed in the 2024/25 season".
