| Pemberton Stadium | The Board |
The New Stadium at Pemberton / Trostre Estimated Completion Date Aug 2007 January 2006 Update - The bulldozers are in! The area of land where the stadium is going and a part of the surrounding area has been flattened, some kind of markers have been set out too. If they keep on the 18 month schedule we should be sorted by next July, just in time for the new season! The only photo we have to date is supplied thanks to "redeyes". As you can see the land is being cleared of trees and bushes at present.
I finally managed to get down there last Friday (27th). As I walked the perimeter taking pictures, I got a text message from "ursamajor" saying that he too had been down there taking pictures. His have been up on the forum for a day or two now. Using the map in the plans section, I aimed to try and give you an idea of how things will look or rather, where things will be. You will need to use your imagination a bit and the exact locations of the buildings may be slightly different. So where to start? Well I thought some people would be coming in by car, so where do you park? On the road to Trostre Works behind the Blockbuster Video store and the petrol station will be two match day carparks. Carpark1 will hold approx 300 cars, while carpark 2 will hold approx 500 cars. Once the car is parked, its a short walk to the existing subway to cross the main Llanelli to Swansea road. Once through this currently battered, dark subway. you will pass an Electricity sub station on the left and then come onto Ground Entrance 2. Along with the pictures already seen, I took four more photographs of the area which we believe is marked out for the stadium. Leaving the Stadium and heading down to the current Trostre roundabout, the one with the McDonalds sign on it and heading back to Halfway lights. This corner area will have a wetlands feature on it. Continuing on towards the Halfway lights, this area will house the Food Retail Unit, Hotel and Restaurant. Next we come onto the first of two Fast Food outlets on the complex, with a Police Facility nearby. Finally that leads us on to the area containing the Training Pitch, 6 lane running track and other sporting facilities. I also have a video clip of the area I made that day, which I hope to add soon along with Ursa's pictures. |
