Trafford Training Centre, Carrington
Manchester United Limited
Paul Butler Associates secured planning permission for a series of works at Manchester United’s Trafford Training Centre in Carrington after the Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government Eric Pickles decided not to call in the scheme.
The planning application was approved by Trafford Council’s Planning Committee, but was referred to Mr Pickles because of its Green Belt location.
The works, which will be ready for the 2012/2013 season, include a two storey extension to the main training centre building; a two storey building to form a grounds team and visitor centre facility; a single storey building to form a grounds team and parent spectator facility; two new caged training pitches; the erection of a new security lodge and alterations to the existing access arrangements; and, remodeling of the existing car park layout and the creation of a new pedestrian walkway between the academy team’s building and the main training centre.
