Amazing!

One of the best, if not one of the best sport/football/training academy in the World.

Down at the stadium now. Been around the academy and taken another picture update. The change in 4-5 weeks is breathtaking.

Will post the pictures tonight.

Also taken loads of pictures of tbe bridge.

Yes, that's a bonus and it might mean that the roads will remain open
 
Taken this Afternoon.

Mixture of everything currently happening around the stadium.

Such a beautiful panoramic picture! (And this time tomorrow, it will look so different again!

Is it a case that in about 12 hours time the bridge will be fully in place or will it be done over a few nights? (Obviously I understand that it's going to take some time for it to be open to the public etc)
 
Two panoramic shots.

The first is from the front/near Alan Turing Way.

The second is from the back of the training academy.

The Collar site.

The location for the proposed leisure destination of international and national significance.

The site goes further, further back, and to the right of me. Whatever get's built will be massive.(arf!)

Nice work JRB as usual, your such an inspiration to this thread thank you. Looking at the pics you posted and as a builder myself (yes and qualified gas engineer s.p. you troll) it looks to me theres more going on than moving or sorting out the earth works gas water electricity etc, looks very much like foundations, think powers that be knew well in advance of MCC decision (officially) to grant permission for extention....s ?????
 
Final set. Phew!

47 pictures.

The first 7 pictures show the Connell Sixth Form College building.(lilac) <a class="postlink" href="http://www.connellsixthformcollege.com/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;">http://www.connellsixthformcollege.com/</a>

Then it's around the academy.
