Wembley National Stadium Limited has applied to Brent Council for permission for Tottenham Hotspur to hold up to 17 games at the stadium between January and May 2019. They emphasise that this is a contingency plan as completion of Spurs' new stadium is awaited.
10 of the games would be up to 62,000 capacity and 7 at full capacity.
Consultation on the application closes on December 19th 2019.
The application can be found HERE
An obvious question is how this will affect the replacement of the stadium pedway by steps which was already a very tight schedule. Work will not take place on event days so if option takes up the contingency the project will lose 17 of the 87 days scheduled for completion of the scheme.
Unfortunately the Site Management Plan for the steps project is no longer available on the Brent Council website. LINK
The pre-planning advice offered by Alice Lester, Brent Head of Planning has been redacted. I wonder if this referred to the steps?
Is it not ridiculous to say there will be no impact having added 17 more events in a short space of time. I hope this does in fact interfere with the must hated pedway removal. Still no news when the NCR link will be done
