Title: Adver News: Town in talks with council over County Ground plans Post by: News Monkey on Tuesday, December 20, 2011, 08:00:12 Town in talks with council over County Ground plans
SWINDON Town will be hoping to take another step forward in their County Ground redevelopment plans when they meet with the local council today to discuss revenue-making outlines in their proposal. http://www.thisisswindontownfc.co.uk/news/headlines/9428374.Town_in_talks_with_council_over_County_Ground_plans/?ref=rss Title: Re: Adver News: Town in talks with council over County Ground plans Post by: Reg Smeeton on Tuesday, December 20, 2011, 09:44:56 Quote I think the council understands that this football club is an important gateway to Swindon. A redeveloped County Ground sitting alongside an upgraded Magic Roundabout in an enhanced area and I think that will give the town a lift :) The thought of SBC trying to upgrade the Magic Roundabout :Ride On Fatbury's Lovestick: what are they going to do put a roof over it? Have a monorail linking it to the enhanced Whale Bridge roundabout? Place your suggestions here....

My grandad used to love telling me that on average 3 times a week he would have to detour just so passengers would be able to go across it.

I like it....but why not combine a roof and plants and go for an Eden Project style biome?

I hear the Oasis dome is about to be scrapped soon, they could always use that as a roof over the magic roundabout & make it the 'Magic Eden Roundabout'Title: Re: Adver News: Town in talks with council over County Ground plans Post by: Reg Smeeton on Tuesday, December 20, 2011, 12:52:04 I hear the Oasis dome is about to be scrapped soon, they could always use that as a roof over the magic roundabout & make it the 'Magic Eden Roundabout' Blue sky thinking....or maybe green sky thinking....a recycled dome. Get Ronnie's canal basin in there, and then the terrapins that used to live in the Queen's Park hot house could be rehoused, along with the cacti.

Title: Re: Adver News: Town in talks with council over County Ground plans Post by: jonny72 on Tuesday, December 20, 2011, 13:38:29 Wasn't there talk some time ago of them adding a flyover to the Magic Roundabout, for the Queens Drive road (or whatever it is called there)? Can't see it happening though and I'm not sure how they'd fit it in.
