Planning of a redevelopment of Ranheim Idrettspark was made in 2005, but due to Ranheim Fotball's promotion to the second tier ([1. divisjon](/source/1._divisjon)) in [2009 season](/source/2009_2._divisjon), [Trondheim Municipality](/source/Trondheim_Municipality) wanted to speed up the process and finance an upgrade of Ranheim Idrettspark, e.g. a new artificial pitch with an underground heating system. This was an important step in Ranheim's stadium redevelopment needed to meet [NFF](/source/Football_Association_of_Norway)'s requirements for football stadiums in the two highest divisions. Ranheim Fotball itself organised the expansion of the stands with approximately 1,000 covered seats and new floodlights facilitated TV broadcasting.
