Design tender due for sports complexes

20 September 2002

The Works Ministry is preparing to invite consultants to bid for the contract to draw up detailed designs and management proposals for a network of sports complexes in Bahrain. Each facility will comprise uncovered sports playing fields, club buildings, an athletics track, a health club, an Olympic-standard swimming pool, a small mosque, and car parking facilities.

Germany's Tilke has drawn up preliminary studies for the project. Detailed design work is scheduled to take 12 months. A tender for the first construction packages is expected in the fourth quarter of 2003. The projects are part of a wider programme to develop sporting facilities in urban areas around Manama. The client is the General Organisation for Youth & Sport.
