No planning application yet and I haven't seen the Council requesting expressions of interest. It appears that the one director of the company has a very chequered past. Unless of course he is part of Matt Ford's 'consortium' to take on the whole stadium?! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You can see that going down a wow with the apartment owners on top of the stadium. Speedway noise travels. Much as I as a speedway fan would enjoy a free ringside seat from my balcony, heaven help what the rest of the residents would think of it. The redevelopment idea/plan is very impressive and in line with what I would expect on prime Dorset land. A speedway track in a high end residential area I would be very surprised to see. Love to be proved wrong. I lived in a 13th floor high riser overlooking Hackney Marshes when I first got married in 1975. I used to go to the track regular as only one mile away. I can assure you it could be loud enough back then even from there so lord knows how much noise these residents would have to put up with. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

However would you be keen as a high end purchaser really be happy to have the noise on your door step. Will be intrigued to see how this develops (if at all). The development is mightily impressive, but the speedway track. Let's see. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
