As the administration lead by Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath constructs a new stadium in Gorakhpur, Uttar Pradesh will soon have its fourth international cricket arena. A 50-acre plot of land in Tal Nadaur has been selected as the possible location for the stadium. The stadium’s construction is anticipated to be expedited and is likely to cost INR 236.40 crore.
45 acres of the 50 acres allocated for the stadium would go towards the stadium’s construction, with the remaining area being utilised for parking and other auxiliary amenities. The stadium, which is roughly 23.6 km from the Gorakhpur airport, 20.8 km from the Gorakhpur Railway station, and 22 km from the Raptinagar Bus Stand, would be connected by a new road that would be constructed from the Varanasi-Gorakhpur route.
According to a story in The Times of India, an official involved in the project stated that “work on the Gorakhpur International Cricket Stadium will begin soon, and while international matches are currently held in Kanpur and Lucknow, the construction of another stadium in Varanasi is nearing completion.”
The Gorakhpur International Cricket Stadium’s future amenities
The stadium would be constructed under the Engineering, Procurement, and Construction (EPC) methodology, according to the study. The East and West stands, the North and South Pavilions, the Entry Gates, and the parking lots are a few of the main features. The stadium may have a capacity of 28,980.
“The engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) methodology will be used to build the stadium. The project entails building the stadium complex’s North and South pavilions, East and West stands, entry gates and security checkpoints. Parking spaces will be accessible on the ground floor of both stands and may hold up to 1,500 cars. According to the source, there will be 28,980 seats available in the East and West stands, each with a seating capacity of 14,490.
Stadium amenities could include things like restrooms, drinking water stations, concourses, media lounges, broadcasting rooms, first aid stations, service halls, video branding, retail businesses, and more, in addition to the stands and pavilions.
