The development includes a safe standing trial
Work is getting underway for a new multi-million pound redevelopment of Lincoln City’s Stacey West stand.
A new facility inside the Stacey West stand will be built to accommodate this, with community spaces, dedicated office space and classrooms designed to engage with and help those in the local area.Plans were slightly altered last year as a result of a “volatile” economic landscape, prompted by the COVID-19 pandemic and cost of living crisis, meaning that a 1,500 seat expansion of the stand could not go ahead.
Lincoln City are one of the clubs keen to be involved in a possible trial of the scheme, in the hopes that it could return in future. Martin Hickerton, the chief executive of Lincoln City Foundation, said the plans have been ongoing from the moment he started at the Foundation some two years ago, and he is delighted to see it “start to come to life”.
“At the moment, you wouldn’t necessarily know where we were unless you came to find us, but with the new hub you’ll see us as soon as you come to Cross Street and into the stadium footprint.Discussing the trial of safe standing, Lincoln City Chief Executive Liam Scully said: “I’m incredibly biased of course, but the real success of this project has been that we’ve driven innovation throughout.
He adds: “It would be no use developing just what fans see on the green rectangle, for example just having a really good first team and not improving the facilities, training grounds, stadium, development structures etc. and the community is no different to that.
