    On closer inspection of the newly concreted road. It is smooth surface which cant be used for vehicles. It has to have grooves to stop ice forming properly and to direct water away.

    If it is where do the stairs lead to? I thought all spectator entry points where at ground level and you had to head up the steps to your seat, and there are no boxes in the north stand

    winjoin - Add the photos to a hosting service, for instance Photobucket and copy the [img] tags under the photo into a new message.

    You can say that again, he said that that was concreted last week would be tarmaced and will be used as a road. The concfete is too thin for a road and has no rebar in it either.

    SP, that is one belting bit of concrete, its made with small white pebbles that you can see, when I was a lad they used to hand polish concrete like that and it looked like marble, that wont be covered in tarmac.

    Does anyone know what material the Red cladding is made from ? If it is plastic, would that not fade over time and become dull, and then need replacing ?
