Info
New Queens Park is a proposed football stadium that was planned to be finished by 2018 but has been delayed. It will be located in Old Oak Common, and would have been the new home ground of Queens Park Rangers and will form part of a wider Regeneration of the Old Oak Common Area which would include new homes and a brand new station that would be part of HS2Queens Park Rangers' current stadium is Loftus Road, which holds only 18,000 fans, while New Queens Park would have held 40,000. The main reason of the move was to expand the number of fans QPR can have at their home games. QPR chairman and owner Tony Fernandes said that QPR need "more than an 18,000 capacity" and that New Queens Park "will bring a vibrant new destination to London, boosting local businesses, attracting new visitors and tourism and creating a thriving community".
A planning application is due to be submitted in early 2018.
