One of the initiative’s most ambitious projects is the Falkirk Stadium, within the prime ‘gateway’ site, on the land south of the M9 between Falkirk and Grangemouth. A high quality design and build will ensure that the stadium becomes an icon for the regeneration of the Falkirk area. A joint venture company has been formed between Falkirk Council and Falkirk Football Club to run the facility.
Falkirk Stadium new phase is one step closer. The board of directors of Falkirk Community Stadium Ltd is recommending to shareholders that they approve plans to appoint Terrace Hill North East Ltd as developers, subject to contact agreements, for the next stage of construction.
