pa.bristol.gov.uk/online-applications/files/EF2C72759FAE7EE546E08D887965060F/pdf/23_03826_F-TRAVEL_PLAN_FRAMEWORK-3542287.pdfIs interesting reading and has some facts that local residents could do with reading considering the high number of objections related to increased capacity and parking. Among the headlines is the fact the capacity after the stand is open will be 12250 which is less than it was in 2018. Further the club are developing a transport plan to be shared with the highways authority within 6 months of the stand opening. Until then capacity would be limited to 10,500. The document also states bus services pass the stadium at 3 minute intervals, and that the club is willing to contribute to things like bike sheds. The new Ashley Down station of course will have a massive positive impact. Perhaps the residents should be open to the Alton Road end turnstiles being opened to make walking from the station for away fans easier ? If they genuinely want less parking in the area access from that end would make a lot of sense. This is the article something about 10500 (see above). Is it suggestion current capacity is 10500 or once stand is open it will be 10500 for 6 months ?. A bit confused. We have to implement a transport plan within 6 months if we want the full capacity. So until the transport is sorted i guess it will be the sw stand and a block for away fans.

Or less terrace spaces but stand full. Don't think the restriction is on the stand just the overall capacity.

That being the only uncovered area. It's likely Pompey & Charlton will get more than 500 tickets now . If its 10500 then they should be allocated 1500 and charge them £30 for a seat .

The planning officers said that there was no need to rewrite the travel plan at least for this season but I suppose the committee could still include it as a condition.

That's how I read it that it will be monitored for 6 months and if a new travel plan is required then the club have to act.So it should be full capacity as soon as we have the safety certificate

When is the totalisor and the Heineken follow the bear advert being added! Anyone got a picture? Hoffmeister? Yeah your right. Never drank it personally. Didn't they used to say the ad was apt as it tasted like bears p*ss. Obviously I meant when the stadium is finished it would be the case of "if Heineken did football stadiums..........."!!

Looks like it’ll be ready for the Cheltenham game on the 9th December, maybe that will be the test event? I’m sure I read somewhere it’ll have a reduced capacity until it gets a safety certificate? Not sure exactly how it works but think you have to have at least a couple of test events. supergas probably knows ? No idea. There doesn't seem to be any hard and fast rules about how these kinds of things work, so I guess it's a combination of the builders, the operators and the Safety Advisory group who work out what is required. Worth remembering that 'test events' are all about finding potential problems at a less important event with somewhere between one and two thirds of the full capacity involved - so it's more about checking what happens when toilets are flushed every 60 seconds for the whole of half-time rather than basics like structural integrity or the flow of people in and around the stand - all of those things are well-modelled during the design phase. Any test event should be a formality - literally the only thing I can think of that has to be tested in practice rather than modelled during the design phase is the plumbing - it's not a complicated stand, it's not a site where we are using it for this purpose for the first time, the only difference is the number of people and the new facilities. ...

“Test Events” are generally about how people react and use facilities rather than the facilities themselves (that should have been tested before). It’s looking for dangerous grouping or overcrowding of particular spots - if everyone wants to be buying pasties from the only available vendor at half time say! Maybe that’s not a good example as we all expect that? It’s looking out for things nobody expected becoming a problem rather than having it happen with a full house.

Saw it was back, excitedly clicked to see updated pics, nothing.
This has been my routine for the last few days.
May hop on the bike and head over tomorrow!

Won’t be long.
