Huge stands for SailGP dismantled in clear up after sailing event which will reopen the promenade to the public

The removal of the huge stands and infrastructure for SailGP is continuing this week which will see the area near Southsea Castle reopened to the public.

Castle Field, Band Stand Field and the promenade between Blue Reef and the Pyramids remain closed to the public while the work continues to remove the sailing village and stands which were constructed for the weekend event.

Some limited pedestrian access has now been restored around the edges of the site, and it is expected to fully reopen to the public at the weekend which saw the area closed to the public for more than two weeks.
