Manchester City are ploughing £300million of investment into revamping one end of the Etihad Stadium. Consultation with fans and local residents about the project ended last Sunday, with City’s next step to secure planning permission. The increased capacity will bring City in line with the likes of Tottenham, Arsenal and West Ham United. City’s current facilities, which includes a stage for matchday events before matches, is largely open to the elements. City estimate the project will create 2,600 jobs, with priority given to local applicants.
