Ron Martin's letter i.r.o. New Stadium

The young lady hoped it would be available sometime this week. Did say that the main entrance to the car park would be from the new road off Sutton Road with the Eastern Avenue access for coaches and pedestrians.
Well done Flavia!..

So is it just one or two tiers?

I expect a full report this evening!

Lets hope the video has some views from inside the ground.

The Car Park only has room for 1,000 cars so once 500+ places have gone to corporate sponsors, club staff & directors there will not be many places for 'normal' fans. We will have to use street parking or maybe a park & ride sceme?
 
The young lady doing the presentation did mention a shuttle bus service from various locations - town centre and possibly Prittlewell station. She also mentioned that it was possible that parking would be allowed on the retail development - 590 places allocated there. It also seemed from the model that there were other parking spaces nearer the stadium itself, so these are probably for club staff, sponsors etc.
 
Could always park at the crematorium, loads of spaces there. Get there early though as those funny black estate cars take up two spaces.
