The path has shifted now so they can start work on the wing with the shop/museum/offices (right hand side).

The recent drone videos and picture screen grabs are really starting to show the true scale of the new North stand and the wider North stand development.

Basically, it's f*cking huge! :-)

Out for a walk this evening and thought the light captured the arena looking quite spectacular. So shared it here

Looks great!

Anyone know how it's looking on the inside? I was speaking to a lad getting on for a couple of weeks ago, who's firm had been subbie'd in last minute. He said there was a massive scramble and a bit of a panic going on that it wouldn't be anywhere near ready in time for it's planned opening?

Have put elsewhere but thought it should also go on here. I heard yesterday from someone high up in MCC that they intend to reinstall the old railway loop line from Piccadilly over the Ardwick Viaduct curve and join up with the existing underused track that runs to the east of the new Tesla Garage. Tesla only has a five year lease. MCC and the City Football Group intend to install a new train station near the Tesla garage. MCC are in the process of buying / acquiring the bits of land they don't own to get the track reinstalled. I guess this is now happening as HS2 is not going into Piccadilly now. Will obviously take a few years but is clearly good news.

It would amazing if this happened, hopefully, money could come as being part of Euro 2028 then that is the site covered for public transport

1. Buses - need a better drop point near the stadium, the old gas cylinder is shouting out for a transport hub
2. Trams - more trams carriages
3. Cars- hopefully city will build multi-storey car parks at the site
4. Walking MCC along with City making safe walking route back to town
