The plans had been through a long and contentious process before eventually being given the green light.
Just days after members of the common council of an English city announced they’re fully behind a bid to bring the world-renowned Ryder Cup golf tournament to the borough, one of the European stars from the most recent biennial event has announced he’s also a supporter.
He added: “First of all there are the benefits of the tournament itself, with 75,000 visitors per day and all the benefits that will bring to the hospitality industry.”“I’ve studied the proposals for Hulton closely and seen the site for myself – it is an amazing landscape and the prospect of a purpose-built stadium course here would be fantastic for everyone concerned – for golf, for the tournament and for the game in England,” Fleetwood said on his official Instagram account.
“We know that events like Ironman and the Food and Drink Festival have already brought a lot of recognition to Bolton,” he said. “I think that the Ryder Cup will really put Bolton on the world stage, it will bring over 1,000 jobs and there are the 1,000 homes which will really help with our housing shortage.”
Planning director Richard Knight says the company needs more time to complete the project and so it’s now targeting 2035.Speaking to BBC Radio Manchester, he said: “The delay that we’ve had means that we’re now looking at 35, I think 31 would be a bit tight for us to build a new venue and clearly, we don’t want to rush a project such as this.”
