The football club has taken ownership of the project site on 26 July and the construction partner Laing O’Rourke immediately started working on the development of welfare facilities for construction staff that will be required during the estimated three-year construction phase.

Currently, work is underway on repairing and preserving the Grade II listed dock wall, raking of the dock floor, stabilising the hydraulic tower on the project site, and preparation for demolition of existing non-listed structures.

Pipework is also being installed ahead of the infilling of the dock in the autumn.
