Lionel Road Planning Application

Brentford Chamber has sent the following letter in support of Brentford FC’s move to Lionel Road:

On behalf of the Brentford Chamber of Commerce Executive Committee and our Chamber Members, we would like to formally support the planning application put forward for the new Brentford Football Club Stadium Complex.

We firmly believe that the development is a real community asset and will kick start the much-needed economic vitality that Brentford has been lacking in recent years. This will further result in new business prospects and ultimately increase revenue into Brentford.

Established Local businesses will be enhanced, initially through contract procurement opportunities generated from the initial build process, and into the future of the new development and its associated buildings surrounding the stadium.

The Directors of the new Stadium Complex have informed us that they will primarily seek to engage and work with local businesses that can offer services that will be required in all aspects of the final build programme.

The new Stadium Complex will also encourage new business development and provide local employment, which will benefit Brentford Town and its impending vast regeneration over the coming years.

The stadium itself will be an iconic landmark for Brentford’s future, and keep Brentford firmly on the map.
