Should Middlesbrough Council finance the £20m Ski Centre?

Unfortunately not. Business case weak. 2250000 projected visitors a year is more than 6000 per week!

MBC needs to look again at the case for a medium size multi purpose Arena which was sidelined specifically in favour of the Snow Centre.

If you’re going to be ambitious, really go for it and install a highly efficient public transport underground loop system like the one they’re building in Vegas. They reckon it’s down to under £10m per mile to bore the tunnel. You could cover Nunthorpe to the Riverside with a few pick up and drop off points along the way for about £40m. Running costs would be relatively small so once it’s been built, the money would roll in. Imagine getting to games and back in a few minutes with no traffic.

Who cares about Nunthorpe. 😏
