A new draft planning statement outlines the council’s vision to transform the land – mostly in council ownership –with up to 2,000 homes and a raft of leisure, commercial, and education developments.

The stadium-led regeneration plan sets out how the scheme could take up to 20 years to deliver.

The site, currently used as a matchday car park and park and ride, would see phased redevelopment, with potential for one or more multi-storey car parks to support matchday crowds.

The regeneration ties into Leeds United’s stadium expansion plans and responds to city-wide growth since previous planning guidance was adopted back in 2007.

Deputy council leader Jonathan Pryor said: “Our proposals for Elland Road represent a once-in-a-generation opportunity of national significance… to deliver new homes, create jobs and provide major leisure opportunities.”
