Looking good. What are the plans with regards to parking at the new ground? From the pictures it doesn't seem like there are even access roads at the moment and it's hard to see where you will be able to park?

Would be a brilliant way for Eccles to raise revenue if they opened up to allow pre match drinkers.
I'm not from Eccles but i can confirm they do have a bar, beer garden with a built BBQ and so forth and yes there is a path under the motorway on to brookhouse which comes out right between the clubhouse and the pitches.
If they (and i am sure they will) put the effort in, they could benefit massively from this. They have a big Car Park which they could promote for use, a bar for pre-match and post-match drinks and a nice easy walk over to the new ground. Eccles rugby club could see a nice tidy increase in revenue.

Where have you got that from? I can't even find any evidence of the project going to tender. The Greater Manchester Local Travel plan from March this year lists it as a "longer term" scheme very much linked in with the progress of the Port Salford development (according to tenders, the contracts for the design work for the port were due to commence this month) and has no budgeted spend on it this year.
Quote:Longer Term Major Schemes Western Gateway Infrastructure Scheme, (WIGIS) 4.6 WGIS is a major highway scheme which will provide the additional highway capacity required to allow major development proposals in this area to proceed, not just Port Salford but other proposals around this section of the motorway. However, the size of the Port Salford development alone, and the impact this would have on the local highway network, is significant enough for the need to implement WGIS. The main aims of WGIS are to allow a free flow of traffic on the M60 between junctions 9 through to 12 (with actual alterations to Junctions 10 and 11) and provide alternative vehicle access directly to Trafford Park, Irlam and Cadishead. 4.7 The WGIS scheme is likely to be implemented in two phases, part WGIS and full WGIS. Conditions imposed by the Highways Agency require that the rail link is provided prior to any of Port Salford being occupied, part WGIS be provided prior to the first 50% of the warehousing facility being brought into use and full WGIS be provided prior to that 50% being exceeded. The delivery of WGIS is dependent on the delivery of the warehousing at Port Salford. There are no precise dates available to determine when WGIS would be delivered. Planning permission for WGIS will expire in 2019.

Yeah after much emailing seems me n Mr big have had our wires crossed regarding the bridge it goes from the stadium to the car park not over the canal
Bit of a school boy error imo as Tc isn't an option anymore I just hope these travel plans are top notch or it might turn into a real slog getting in n out of the place
Cross your fingers for a good plan

The bridge that is under construction and will be ready is the one linking the stadium to the A57, I think it's what can be seen to the left of the site offices on this pic taken by billybradshawsmum:
Barton Swing Bridge, or traversing Barton Locks are the only methods for the foreseeable future. From the Port Salford planning condition, the road system won't have to be in place until the freight rail line is built, the port warehousing is built, and half of that space is being used. Though it could be sooner.

I asked him about that he said there is no plans to move it but they do have plans to release 300 pictures of it when it is done... I surpose u could email the website and ask, more of us ask more chance of them moving it I surpose.
