The Club can confirm it has submitted plans to create a temporary car park to ease the increased pressures on local parking, expected to be felt as a result of the Club’s recent promotion into League Two.
The outline plans intend to demolish a building owned by the Club to the east of the ground (formally The Bungalow Club) and create a temporary surface level car park for staff and the increased media expected to attend on match days, creating 140 additional spaces and widening access to the site.
The proposal represents the first step in the Club’s five-year growth strategy to make the Club more sustainable, bringing much needed renovations and modifications to Edgeley Park.
Non-Executive Chairman Ken Knott said:
“Part of our five-year growth strategy, the plans have been submitted to help to ease pressures felt by the Club and the local community on match days. It’s an incredibly exciting time at the Club as we head towards our first League Two match at the end of July, and this is one of the necessary improvements to ease that transition into the English Football League.”
