The proposal provides 167 parking spaces and 278 secure bicycle spaces. But the plan begs the question: where would Bracknell Town FC end up playing their matches? The football club is in the process taking up a ground share opportunity and moving the first team to Bottom Meadow, the home of Sandhurst Town FC in time for the 21/22 season. Bottom Meadow is currently undergoing a £2.2m refurbishment, which Sandhurst Town are hoping to finish by July 2021 at the earliest. While Bracknell and Sandhurst will share the ground, the two clubs will retain their separate identities. Sandhurst Town FC currently have a ground sharing arrangement with Bracknell Town FC while Bottom Meadow undergoes development.
