Does anyone know if both ends of the bridge will have styles etc.?

I can just picture the local scroates razzing across the bridge on motor bikes and wrecking it.

I was speaking to the engineer who designed the bridge last week. Apparently the lighting can be changed and the light fittings are the same as those used in the Empire States Building in NYC.

The bridge is also a cycle path so I think it will be clear at both sides.

Good to see reference on the plaques and 'hologram' to St Helens, should reassure all those who panicked we were selling our souls with the new Saints RL rebranding.

It would not surprise me if your mate noticed all the people out and about today taking photo's of the bridge and new stadium and put two and two together and came up with five

The chap i was speaking too said it would take 5 weekends to get it all put together

My concern is the local chavs using the stadium open area as an "adventure playground". Especially at the back of the North Stand car park area, I assume there will be CCTV installed or maybe some 24 hour security. Tesco will probably have there own but I,m not sure of the clubs facility over this area.

there IS CCTV all around the stadium and I am sure Saints after building a £25 million pound stadium will employ some rent a cops to patrol it and make sure the local "characters" do not enjoy themselves at the clubs expense

As to day was a fine day, i decided to take some more piccies.

ill start as i ended my last update with the negative.

Another dodgy lightpost. This one has no hat



I am also sad to report that the Shite hawks have taken up residence and are using the stadium as a toilet.
The black cladding is covered in pigeon poo
Keiron seems to have escaped so far, however it wont be long i fear before he gets a white crown.

Here are my pics from THE KINGS CORNER











The main entrance showing the two lift shafts



The cafe bar, in the second pic you can see a set of double doors leading into the club shop.





A couple of shots of the walk from the Tesco's





Now onto the Bridge.

















Looking down from the bridge ramp to the Tesco's

Are there any plans for the old kiln? It would make a superb pub and connect very well with the St. Helens glass making/bottle-making, industries/heritage.

No plans beyond making it safe and fencing it off, with the state of the place inside it would take a lot of money to make a pub out of it, just too many years of neglect , basically all there is left is the brickwork, vitrually nothing else, this thread should gioive you an idea of how dialpedated it is and how much of it is underground its huge www.28dayslater.co.uk/forums/sho ... ngton+shaw
