How many times have Castlefords's matches been cancelled because of flooding. can't remember any . Maybe one due to snow thawing..
Looks like neither clubs will have a new groundm the next time the franchises are being awarded. So both Clubs could be kicked out.
And the RFL will have what they want 12 clubs.

Thanks for that smiler! icon_lol.gif

Unfortunately, the 1 in 100 year flood levels can't be dismissed so easily; ask bigalf - he knows, but chooses to remain uncharacteristically silent on this matter; I can't think why.

In real terms, all it means is that the prospect of building a large format food store on WR is significantly more complicated and costly than it would be to build one in the conventional way; it's not a deal breaker, but since Tesco don't give a hoot about CT and it's need for a new stadium, logic dictates that they'll build on a site that is most cost effective for them, as opposed to one that allows Cas to live the dream.

I have no doubt that WR will eventually sell and I genuinely hope it does so within a timeframe and at a value that allows CT to realise their plans to the RFL's satisfaction; at this moment in time however, that's far from certain, much like our own ambitions to be building at NM by the summer of 2012.

I'd be more concerned if it was 1 in 2 year flood levels. icon_biggrin.gif

Quote: bren2k "As far as I'm aware, the flood risk based on the 1 in 100 (for rivers) data dictates that the store would have to be built on stilts; that would make the whole build at least 25% more expensive and god knows how much more complicated.

I don't know if that's the case for the rest of Castleford - the data is probably out there somewhere, but I wouldn't know where to start looking.'"


The flood risk model for WR was undertaken by one of Opus's consultants and it was them that uncovered the 1 in 100 year risk for the site.

At the LDF hearings the Environment Agency were asked to undertake an outline flood risk model for the whole of SPA 9, which of course included the WR site, because the issue of flooding had arisen 'in the area' and the inspector wanted to understand the risk. This would also uncover if the EA needed to seek capital expenditure for some flood protection for SPA 9 in the longer term to facilitate the regeneration of the area.

River Aire on Kirkstall Road in Leeds has always been a flood risk, and genuinely does flood, a lot.
But Morrisons still built their, and its only caused a problem once I think.

No real reason why Tesco can't make the same decision. Its just down to the options they have rather than the flood risk imo.

"Castleford's biggest home crowd of the 1991-1992 season wasn't quite 12,000 while on average they'd sit around 6000 but the noise, the chanting and the singing just blows you away" - Tawera Nikau "Standing Tall" "I can tell you the atmosphere was extraordinary at Wheldon Road on big days. The ground held around 15,000 people, every one of them close to the action on the field and the noise would be enough to send a rumble through the town" - Malcolm Reilly "Reilly - A Life in Rugby League":d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_39793.jpg



Taken from the latest report commissioned by WMDC October 2011

"3.2 N101 – Castleford Tigers Ground, Wheldon Road
The JBA model results show that the whole of the 3.84ha site is located
outside the predicted 1 in 100 year flood extent"

and also furthermore:

"The EA have confirmed that a large flood alleviation scheme at St. Aidens, upstream of Castleford, is due to come on line soon. It is understood, from discussions with the EA, that this flood alleviation scheme would significantly reduce flood risk within Castleford."
