In summary;
North Stand (works already commenced)
South Stand
- New safety barriers at the very top of the Upper North
- Reseating the whole upper North

- All new electrical rewiring and infrastructure throughout
- Relocation of some turnstiles
- Increase in milling around areas to secure capacity current capacity and indeed increases
- Construction of new concessions in both upper and lower parts of the stand. All will be more open plan
All of these works are essential if we want to at the very least maintain existing capacity/ marginal increase to comply with various regulations.
- Reseating all South stand upper.
- Construction of new concessions
- Removing the lower section completely and re-profiling it, so that the upper section of the stand extends down to pitch side.
