Liverpool FC's delayed expansion to its Anf ield Road stand has received planning permission from Liverpool City Council. The £60m expansion, which will see another 7,000 seats added to the stadium, was paused due to the coronavirus pandemic last year. The club also announced at the time that it was delaying its completion date to summer 2023. Buckingham Group will deliver the expansion. The stadium improvements are the second phase of Anfield's expansion. The first - a £100m extension to the ground's Main Stand - was completed in 2016 by Carillion. Buckingham will build a new tier above the existing Anfield Road stand, adding capacity and hospitality facilities. The expansion will take the stadium's capacity to 61,000, while Anfield has also been granted permission to hold concerts and events for the next five years.
