en.Wedoany.com Reported - Details have been revealed for the Trent Sports Zone project, centered on the redevelopment of Nottingham Forest's City Ground, which aims to create a flagship example of "sports-led regeneration." As a key component of the East Midlands Combined County Authority-led "Trent Arc" initiative, this sports zone will bring together national-level sports venues and, through the upgrade and transformation of the City Ground, is expected to become a catalyst for local investment and regeneration.

Property and construction consultancy Gleeds has been formally appointed as the advisory team tasked with developing a detailed regeneration framework for the zone. East Midlands Mayor Claire Ward stated that Nottingham is a true sporting city, home to world-class teams and loyal fans, and the Trent Sports Zone will, through a series of investments, help the city embrace its sporting culture, increase participation among residents and visitors, and improve the quality of life for all. She emphasized that with the redevelopment of the City Ground at its core, the zone will become a model for sports-led regeneration and will be one of the key topics for discussion with partners and investors at UKREiiF.

According to the plans, over time, the Trent Sports Zone is expected to attract new investment, increase visitor spending, and create more opportunities for local residents. The zone's planning will encompass support for sports at all levels, from elite competition to community participation, while also providing new opportunities for events, hospitality, leisure, health, and well-being. Rushcliffe MP James Naish stated that he has been contacted by numerous sports clubs, and there is excitement across the board about the prospect of working together through sports and event venues to elevate Rushcliffe, Nottingham, and the wider region. He believes that collaboration on this scale offers the opportunity to secure strategic investment for iconic venues like the National Water Sports Centre and helps address operational challenges such as event-day parking. He shares the Mayor's vision of world-class sports venues driving the local economy and stated he will lobby the government for appropriate support and investment.
