Impact of Not Proceeding with the Development 1.0 Project Vision 1.1 Through the establishment of a Project Board the key partners, Allerdale Borough Council, Workington Reds AFC and Workington Town RFLC have agreed the following vision for the development of a new community stadium in Workington: “The new Stadium will be for West Cumbria: accessed and accessible to the community every day of the week as well our professional Football and Rugby League clubs. Our shared aspiration is to create a compelling beacon for civic pride: that excites, enthuses and serves the community and in so doing, generates sporting ambition and inspiration. The Stadium will replace Derwent Park and Borough Park respectively as the home for Workington Town RLFC and Workington Reds AFC with a development that is fundamentally more compatible with a 21st Century, family-centred, leisure and sporting experience for supporters, visitors, amateur and professional athletes. The Stadium will be efficient, safe, robust, and attractive. Above all, it must be sustainable with a broad economic base to ensure viability and latest technologies to make it financially efficient and minimise its own carbon footprint. The Stadium will be a major component in the lower Derwent Valley masterplan alongside the Workington Sports Centre and at the edge of the town centre.
