True and that’s what I keep looking for, but equally I can’t see anything near the Machinery Store that would indicate it’s going up. With 6 months to go surely the steel work would be up at least?

If it had been shelved then would be trferenced perhaps given the tight timescale, it’s been decided to make that lowest priority ...... what specifically was the sports hall for ??

Are those layouts on the planning website? I've done some digging and the players garden is above, on the first level as you'd walk out at the back level towards the show pitch at that ground level. It's pretty basic but I assume the hydrotherapy pool is directly beneath the obscure sunlights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the latest approved site masterplan and the sports hall is actively towards the right of the main building.

I work in architecture and there is no planning application for this to be removed. Also theres no design and access statement that shows the buildings we've mentioned being removed. Looking at it I think the construction traffic etc is prohibiting the other buildings so that they will be phased on at the end of construction of the main buildings etc.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curious one - if they are indeed a bit behind it might make sense to leave the Sports Hall till last as they could still use the indoor pitch and the training centre's facilities until it's finished. In the plans and the mock ups it's pretty consistent in size and shape to the rest of the training centre - I wonder if they've decided to connect the two up either with a building in between or some sort of garden structure? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah as UHDrive has said, they may be leaving it last. I don’t believe they have connected as they would have had to amend the planning permission and issue new statements etc. Also in the brief on the sports hall, KSS make a song and dance about it being a separate building.

I think you're probably right in that they'll make minor tweaks. The underground basement info is very limited in terms of layout for example and doesn't even show access to it on the floor plans. The main drawing is the one attached. The working site layout is spot on and cannot be amended except for a planning variation application. I think it's fair to say that they've stuck to the planning layout and kept in the good books of Charnwood Borough Council (who are notoriously strict as opposed to other local authorities) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Top must have forced McLaren onto that 78 year and a half build contract. There isn't any traffic management or phasing drawings on there either. So June it is!
