your welcome mate, no artists impressions we have seen the detailed plans but nothing more than that , the club said they are supposed to have videos and 3d mock ups but we havent seen them yet

A little bit of an update for you, my Wife has been hassling the guys building the roundabout, and has been told that the actuall lights on top of the poles will go up either today or tomorrow then work will slow while they tidy up the site before restarting work in about a week or two finishing the roundabout , which incidentaly will have traffic lights on it to contrl getting out of Tesco`s presumably,, it seems like Morrisons are building the bridge and there were a few Land Rovers on the site near where the bridge will enter the site, and also on the other side of the link road so maybe something is happening there.

And SaintsFan if i minded that i wouldnt post on here at all

keep up the good work Gruntfuttock

Cheers two wheeled, trying me best

I see the NWDA is to be disbanded.

What does that mean to the Stadium Development?

I would imagine that the NWDA will be funding all the previous (demolition/remediation) contracts and the current on-going ones relating to the infrastructure. If the contract is signed then all well and good however if it isn’t signed then I would guess that the funding will be pulled. I know Morrsions have been mentioned as the contractor for the bridge but has that been signed yet? If not then that could get pulled and given the cuts they are to face the council won’t have the funds to plug the shortfall.

Are the NWDA part of the funding for the actual stadium build itself? I’d be surprised if that is the case as it’s not really their remit. They get involved to ensure the site is suitable for development eg roads etc.

I guess Saints are lucky to have them billionaires on the board. Plugging a funding gap to the tune of a few million will be chicken-feed to them.

That was my impression at the time it was awarded. The £4 million from NWDA was for infrastructure works, lowering the council input to £6 million. Saints club alone is responsible for the cost of building the actual stadium.

now I was under the impression that the council were payin wholey for the infrastructure with profits from land sales, Saints are putting £8 million and Tescos the rest for the stadium, possibly the NWDA is helping with remediation ? and I dont remembr how much the NWDA was putting in anyway , but as the atricle says they havent gone yet only a white paper on getting rid, this is all speculation and we have no real idea who is paying what, but things ARE proceeding ,

They are moving along ok, just waiting for the first JCB in the ground and things will change dramatically hopefully in the next few weeks...

We are just in at the right time with the development though as undoubtedly things would have been more difficult getting a project like this through in the next 12-18 months after all the changes!
