Everton announce planning application date for new stadium

Everton will submit a planning application for their new ground at Bramley-Moore Dock on December 23, the club have announced.

The stadium plans will be followed by a separate outline planning application for the redevelopment of Goodison Park and surrounding area, with the intention for both applications to be determined by Liverpool City Council at the same time.

Architect Dan Meis’ stadium design will be tweaked slightly after analysing feedback from public consultation.

“It is a case of evolution rather than any major changes to the design presented during the second stage consultation,” said stadium development director Colin Chong.

“I’m pleased to confirm that our detailed planning application for a new stadium at Bramley-Moore Dock will be submitted on Monday 23 December.”
