And a bit more here https://lateralproperty.co.uk/rl

Having been up for a look today (a lot of people turned up, btw!) the only concern I have will be traffic, the new junction looks like a bit of a mess and it appears that's the only way you're allowed to exit the stadium which is obviously going to cause a bottle neck. It will need a lot of traffic control and mass transit to stop it being a nightmare ala Salford.

The new junction is going to cost them £10m Gronk... that is big chunk of money to spend, plus £12m/£13m on a stadium, and get it wrong! It will be busy on match days but equally who says match days will be on Sunday's in future!!! I don't know anything about that BTW, pure speculation.

I think it won't be a Salford because it opens out directly on to a motorway and three other larger roads that lead in all directions. Salford's stadium opens up onto a single small local road a good 3/4 mile from the motorway junction. I think with override signal controls to enable traffic to exit after the match as quickly as possible, the majority of the time it will be much easier than it is now to get about at other peak times. Also, it solves the Sainsbury Supermarket issue and I suspect B&Q will move out and over the road to make way for them as well as the proposed other food store on Five Towns Park.

I went along, had a good natter with Mick and the Lateral guys and now I have seen the proposal in full, it gets my full support. Equally, what a great deal for Cas Tigers and the fans! Well done to the Cas board and Wakefield Council for getting this together. I think it has a high degree of success and as I said to one of the Lateral guys tonight, I will walk through Cas Town centre naked if this gets called in for a public inquiry... he said he would hold me to it if it did!

That all said, I am of course reserving full rights to rip the proverbial out of quite a large number of posters on this and the Cas Forum (not you Gronk BTW), who seem to have inadvertently lost any and all moral objection to building on recently renewed Green Belt land (and even green field and not brown field land at that) overnight, and taking the developers shilling in return for getting him planning permission?

well the field is brown when it's ploughed while the park will always be green

I've been told by someone (who is a concerned Stainburn Ave resident who went to Thurs meeting at The Premier Inn) that there is a road to be built from Spittal Hardwick Lane to the ground which would be open for game days only allowing coaches and cars to the ground.

Not sure if this would stop the residents of S.H lane objecting though.

As someone who worked on Carr Wood road for years that to me would be the best place for locals to park...no double yellows down there and would be quiet on a Sundays

I'll be parking up in glasshoughton and then walking down.

Without being pessimistic, in 5 years time i'll still be parking down Wheldon Road! Too many false dawns to get too excited yet.

If we don't get a ground in 5 years time we wont have a club last chance to pay Mr Fulton back.

Let's just hope that this time the plans come to fruition.

Whatever promises are made to the local residents I can gaurantee they will still be objecting to this. I work with one and she is 100% looking to object and is also looking to take legal action and get compensation from this.

I hope she's got deep pockets to take on the financial might of the organisations involved.

Lets hope it comes off, for both clubs, we have both gone through plenty of adversity in the last decade, it good to hear both clubs might might be getting a new start in new stadia, we will just have to keep our fingers & toe's crossed & hope we get them.

She ain't got a prayer.

You pretty much can't even see where the Stadium will be due to a hill and looking for compensation screams of "oh this sounds like an easy way to make some money!". In fact, the Nature Park will probably INCREASE the value of her property, people who like to NIMBY are ridiculous - the folk at Newmarket, the ones moaning about HS2 - shut up, you're not losing out on anything.

Wouldn't be shocked at all if it's pretty much a done deal with the council and it was them who said build the stadium and we will pass the development for you.
