New Stadium Approved

[Panda]

Apparently the architects have been changed, according to someone who was at that Q&A thing last week. The same people who designed Brighton's stadium and Liverpool's new stand.

 

According to the same fella, club have recently visited Gent, and plan to visit Spurs & Atlanta soon.

 

Be interesting to see if the design of the stadium changes, though I think it's more likely they'll be looking at things they can include within the stadium to maximise income.

Not sure what they could glean from Spurs and Atlantas mega structures that would be relevant to what we'll be building.

Would rather they were visiting Austria Vienna, Groningen, Young Boyr Bern etc. rather than pie in the sky visits to Atlanta.

They've already been to Groningen.

 

As per last post, they're likely visiting to see how they maximise their income from the stadium rather than actually copying the designs.

 

They also might be looking at boring stuff. ie Tottenham (and Gent) operate shuttle buses. Atlanta are currently building a pedestrian bridge.

 

Though if Aberdeen announce a 60,000 capacity stadium with a retractable roof and a wrap around TV screen, which houses their own brewery and has a 100 yard long bar, then I'll take that all back.

First people want them to buy buses, then it's hotels.

Do Spurs run shuttle buses!? From where? It's in the same location as the old ground. Wouldn't have thought there was any need in London with its transport infrastructure?

Apparently so.

 

The stadium area is served by up to 144 buses an hour. Bus routes that stop close to the ground are 149, 259, 279, 349, and W3. A number of buses routes however are subject to diversions on matchdays. The club also operates two high frequency shuttle bus services to the stadium, one from Alexandra Palace via Wood Green (on Piccadilly line) and finishing at Haringey Sixth Form College, and the other from Tottenham Hale to Duke's Aldridge Academy. On match days, roads near the stadium are normally closed to traffic up to three hours before kick-off, and one to one and a half hours after the match. Car parking in the area is controlled on match days.

For London (so all relative), White Hart Lane was always a bit of a ball ache to get to. No tube station particularly close and even then only one line (Victoria) goes that direction. So getting 60k fans there would cause issues

[Panda]

Changed to or from those guys?

Changed to. KSS they're called or something.

 

But then I read elsewhere that they're getting another architect firm to run the rule over the previous plans and pick any holes. Then I heard KSS do more corporate stuff, so maybe Halliday Fraser are still doing the main part of the stadium and KSS are just doing interior.

 

I don't know.

Aye, the reason I noticed it was I'll be in London in a few weeks so was gonna go take a spy of the new stadium, and noticed getting there generally includes a lengthy walk from somewhere.

 

But according to their site the stadium tours haven't actually started yet anyway.

Floodlights erected now at the first pitch.

Progressing very well by looks of the pics.

Swung the drone up by Kingsford after I got rumbled looking at folk sun bathing in their Backies...

Is that not Lawsondale?

[Dom Sullivan]

Is that not Lawsondale?

Correct

[RUL]

Yeah, Westdyke use it I think, the dons youth teams use it to train on in winter at the moment.

[G31DON]

Fantastic magic mushroom zone around the pitches there if that's your thing. Might be beneficial before a Hamilton game.

[Tord31]

Cormack aims to get the funds in place within 12 months or maybe little more or maybe a little less. He knows a few people apparently.
