Accessible Stadia Update

The new, multi-million-pound accessible stadia facilities at Turf Moor continue to take shape.

The North East corner between the James Hargreaves and Jimmy McIlroy stands - the first phase of the project to improve the overall matchday experience for disabled fans - is closing in on completion.

This phase has, as reported, encountered major challenges in the early build, relating to below-ground issues.

With these now resolved, the stand has quickly taken shape and the latest estimate for completion is the end of March.

Fans will be able to occupy this stand during April, with a ‘try before you buy’ trial period enabling supporters to fully assess preferred positions before the season is complete.
