Showcase event for new Leamington football stadium and athletics facilities plans
Leamington and Warwick residents are being invited to an event being held by Warwick District Council (WDC) next week to showcase “exciting” plans for a new football stadium and athletics facilities on land between the two towns.
The new community stadium at Myton Green is proposed to be the new home ground for Leamington FC, while the athletics facilities from Edmondscote will be relocated to the same area.
Anyone interested in seeing the plans and chatting to the project team can attend a drop-in session at Myton Gardens Primary School, in Fusiliers Way, on Thursday May 14 from 6:30pm to 8pm.
There will also be a representative from Warwickshire Property Development Group who will be able to share plans for a new local centre, including a shop and nursery, near the two new sites.
The plans and computer-generated images will be made available on Warwick District Council’s website from the same day, with an online comment form open until Thursday May 28.
Councillor Jonathan Chilvers, WDC’s portfolio holder for resources, said: “These large-scale projects can take time to develop as it’s important that we get them right, but I’m delighted that we’re now at the stage where we can show the community some updated visuals and plans that really bring these exciting projects to life.
“I’d encourage anyone interested in these new facilities to take a look at the plans and let us know any comments you have, so that we can ensure we are putting the community at the heart of these facilities.”
The Community Stadium plans developed by Leamington FC and the District Council, would see the construction of a 4000-capacity football stadium with a 3G artificial pitch, conference facilities, café and community facilities on land adjacent to Fusiliers Way.
The relocation of the athletics facilities will ensure that the many clubs and schools that train on the existing facilities are able to use a modern, fit-for-purpose facility.
"The proposed pavilion will also have space the local community can use.
"The current site of the athletics facilities will become part of a new public park.
