Nottingham Forest have taken further steps in the proposed redevelopment of their City Ground home.
As reported by The Business Desk, the Reds have released further new images of their planned revamp as a decision date is neared.
Nottingham Forest release updated images of City Ground plans
Nottingham Forest have released new and improved images for their City Ground renovation proposals.
With previous expansion plans said to no longer meet the scale of the club's ambitions, new proposals are said to take the capacity over 50,000.
Speaking on the approval of previous plans, which were first sought in 2019 and received in 2025, the club stated: “At the time of submission, Nottingham Forest were competing in the Championship.”
“This significant progress on the pitch, together with the club's long-term strategic ambitions, has made it clear that the existing proposal no longer meets the scale of aspiration required for the future of the City Ground.”
Initial focus of the plans will centre around the redevelopment of the Peter Taylor Stand, as well as the filling in of the Trent End corners.
When will redevelopment works take place?
The Reds' latest expansion plans were lodged in December 2025, while at a fan Q&A in January, the club laid out a proposal for a planning committee beginning as early as April or May according to The Business Desk.
Under current plans, Phase One of the expansion and redevelopment works will complete in 2030.
Phase Two, which will likely include a subsequent renovation to the Brian Clough Stand, is then set to be decided on on completion of the first phase, with an initial outline anticipating full completion and re-opening of the full project by 2033.
With concerns about the Reds maintaining their Premier League status in the 2025-26 season, currently sitting one place and five points above the drop zone, club officials have confirmed that expansion works will go ahead whether the club remain in the top flight or not.
FGG says: Exciting steps for Nottingham Forest
After deeming initial proposals insufficient to meet the club's abmitions, Nottingham Forest's new plan images show encouraging off-pitch development for the club.
Having earned European football for the 2025-26 campaign, the Reds are wise to consider expansions to their home, particularly if a continued Premier League stay brings demand to fill a 50,000-capacity home, allowing the Midlands side more opportunity for financial growth to support on-pitch plans.
