Lee Valley Ice Centre Feasibility Exercise- Have Your Say
Over the past 4 months, Lee Valley Park, have been looking at the feasibility of a new Ice Centre on Lea Bridge Road to replace the highly successful but ageing one (it is now over 33 years old). The first stage of the exercise involved assessing the business case for a new twin pad Centre (two rinks rather than the one at the current venue). They concluded that there is indeed a strong business case for a new venue. The second stage, which they have just concluded, has focused on identifying the optimum site for a new venue. They have now identified three possible sites for this - the existing site in Waltham Forest, Eton Manor in the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park or the Picketts Lock site in Enfield.
They are holding a series of stakeholder/local community engagement sessions at the end of April to present the outcomes of the feasibility exercise and to explain how they have arrived at the selection of a particular site. Dates for these sessions at the current Ice Centre are as follows
