Maybe it's a game of dare

Enjoying a drop of red.
So, in which decade do you think this will ever happen?
It all seems to be
and no action from SCC/SBC.Sounds like excuses and no action from the developer to me. It's now over 12 months since the first spade was due.

P.P.P.P.P.P! Just sayin!
The first news item was the newsletter guess working based on previous information. In december 2011 plans were in the process of been drawn up to accomodate debenhams ( who have signed a lease), they wanted an extra floor which plans were passed on in August.
Councils and media were the ones giving dates even though on one occasion lxb had not confirmed who wad undertaking the work. Government also needed to approve this development which happened in September and planning was only submitted to SCc for a traffic regulation on a 6 week lane closure on that side of asda ( this has yet to be passed).
Let alone a closure thay side would wreak havoc as the inside is going nowhere on an evening outside asda in the uttoxeter lane due to the blackheath lane backlog.
I have emailed a colleague at lxb for an update but until permission is passed for the lane closure nothing will start as vehicle.access is required at 3 points.

it actually on paper should be very quick around 70 weeks which is fast if you look at the roadworks on the a34 edge of Stafford started in Jan 2013 should have finished in june but will go until next month and be back again before March.
Of course developments never go to the planned timeline.

If you look at some of the weather foecasts for the impending winter, you could see any immediate work being delayed further.

If you think that Riverside is going to start before this winter is over, you're having a laugh.
I'll be surprised if it starts before 2015

Was also wondering where all the plant etc will go while they work on the Kingsmead side if the back end of the car park floods?

The area round the back of Love2Love and the Express has been fenced off with 'Demolition in Progress' signs being put up on the said fence.
