Caddick Construction has been selected to help Leeds United Football Club (LUFC) expand its coach park and upgrade its broadcasting facilities.

The Knottingley-based company will start work next month to create a new £1.3 million coach park on the Fullerton Park and West Stand car park, a Sky Compound and a pedestrian walkway for fans to make their way safely to the Elland Road stadium.

The improvements are expected to be completed in December 2020 and will help the Club manage the anticipated increase in away coaches for the Premiership fixtures, when spectators are once again allowed in to watch live matches.

"The new coach park, pedestrian walkway and broadcasting compound will help ensure that Elland Road will be worthy of its Premiership status," said Caddick Senior Contracts Manager Chris Allott "It's great that we are once again working with the Club to improve the ground's facilities and make sure it is fit for purpose to welcome back fans when the time is right."

Mark Broadley, Head of IT and Facilities at LUFC added: "We are delighted to be working with Caddick Construction again, and we are looking forward to seeing the upgraded ground facilities completed and in use for our first Premiership season for 16 years."
