Etihad Campus, Stadium and Collar Site Development Thread

I think you will find it was manufactured by a structural engineering firm, who would have coded welders, so what when wrong must be documented somewhere.


Manchester City Council said it has settled out of court with Thomas Heatherwick Studio Limited and subcontractors Packman Lucas Limited, Flint and Neill Partnership and Westbury Structures Limited over the design and construction problems of the sculpture B of the Bang, at Sportcity in east Manchester.

A settlement figure of £1.7m has been paid to Manchester City Council. As a result of the settlement agreement court proceedings, scheduled to take place later this month, will no longer go ahead.



The City Council has settled the legal proceedings brought in connection with the design and construction of the sculpture B of the Bang. The report considers the financial and other implications of the settlement and makes recommendations for the future of the sculpture.

 
Surely ADUG/City will make an offer for the land, which would expand the size of the Etihad Campus.

Three sites totalling just shy of 16 acres are up for grabs just outside the Holt Town regeneration zone.

National Grid is selling a trio of plots off Bradford Road close to the Etihad Campus and the soon-to-complete Co-op Live arena.

Two of the plots are former gasholder sites, with the largest spanning 10 acres. The gasholder has been removed and the site has been levelled.

The second largest site is a little over five acres and also features a former gasholder, which is in the process of being removed.

The third site is a one-acre landlocked L-shaped plot close to the Blue car park at the Etihad.

 
City could extend the car parks backwards, adding extra capacity. It would also give the club a sizeable parcel of land if they ever decided to redevelop the land into something else instead of the car parks

Getting that L shaped piece of land would give them access to the tunnels that go under the railway line which surely would be helpful in access and exit to the site and improve traffic on Alan Turing Way after events. Also could be a potential railway station site in the distant future.

Good shout on the train station. Where does that line go to?
