They are recovering most of the coal (approx 1m thick seams ) as part of the cut and fill earthworks to form the platform to build the whole scheme on.
So no separate planning permission will be required?

Is it true that there is a railway station right next to where the new stadium will be? If so will fans be able to catch the train after the game? - Just wondering

That is good for us train travellers. Although I hope they dont close the station when there is a match or a concert on, like they are going to do when a station opens next to a stadium near me next month

Just read about it in the Coventry Telegraph. Unbelievable!
