New Plymouth’s Yarrow Stadium has been condemned and vacated because it is not safe.

In an emailed statement the stadium owner the Taranaki Stadium Trust said the West Stand was an earthquake risk and could no longer be occupied.

Geotechnical testing on the stadium’s West Stand showed the ground stability of the bank beneath it was a significant earthquake risk.
