New Everton Stadium Discussion

When they re modelled one of Bristols hospitals, they included 500 bike parking spaces. Free, obvs, whilst drivers pay through the nose to visit folk.

No one in their right mind would cycle to the place, based where it is in town.

Prob more to do with BREEAM / sustainability ratings and any benefits that come with it than any true / serious expectation of cyclists visiting.

Unless it's for staff or those to visit, cycling to a hospital for a sizeable percentage of those who requires services would be difficult to impossible.

While it may accommodate staff and hopefully future-proof the hospital for a desired cultural change, it is more likely a tick box exercise.

There's no way I'll be cycling to the ground like so many others, so the investment primarily needs to be in the trains and buses.

The opening of that video was a real wow moment. Normally he lifts the drone just outside the Dock wall. Lifting it up in the air from way back really give for the 1st time on any of the drone videos the real scale of the build, outstanding.

I suspect the hospital @roydo is talking about is St Michaels in Bristol which is half way up a flippin’ steep hill, hard enough to walk up never mind cycle.

Nah, good shout, but it is Southmead. You know where it is, and can you think of many places you would cycle to it from? Or indeed, could.

Very true, we spent time in both Southmead and St Michaels just before and just after our kids were born!

Is it me or has progress on the west stand slowed down ?

And what’s with the white material covering the stand ? Maybe they have started the internal fit out ?

Lower levels are going to be behind the stepped area...
