Manchester City’s expansion plans

Manchester City have made public their proposals to increase the capacity at the Etihad Stadium to 60,000.

The club have opened an exhibition at the 47,500-seat stadium to seek views on their plans.

Two options are being considered, with the most likely being that work to the South Stand is first undertaken to initially take the capacity to 54,000. The North Stand would then be extended.

The second option is to press ahead with expansion on both sides of the ground concurrently. City intend to apply for planning permission in December.
