Sports infrastructure of Yerevan`s Hrazdan stadium to be renovated

ArmInfo.  The sports infrastructure of Yerevan's Hrazdan Stadium will be renovated. The RA  government will allocate 63.135 million drams for the acquisition of  design and estimate documentation for the reconstruction of the  stadium's track and field.

The new track will meet all international standards. It will host the  Francophonie Games in 2027. To begin the work, design and estimate  documentation must first be obtained in accordance with RA  legislation on urban development and procurement. An inspection and  certification of the technical condition of Hrazdan Stadium has  already been conducted, confirming that the stadium's southern and  northern stands can be used at 50% of their capacity, accommodating  11,750 people. The Western Stand can be used at 100% capacity and  accommodate 8,100 people. The first 11 rows of the Eastern Stand can  be used at 100% capacity and accommodate 1,716 people. Tiered seating  is not provided. Based on the above, Hrazdan Stadium can accommodate  approximately 21,566 people. Furthermore, it should be taken into  account that stadium improvements are required before hosting any  events, including changing rooms, restrooms, a running track,  landscaping, major repairs, and other construction work.

The RA Urban Development Committee developed technical specifications  for the acquisition of the necessary design and estimate  documentation. Price proposals with the specified technical  specifications were received. ArmProject OJSC was responsible for the  stadium design. Construction costs were also calculated in accordance  with the procedures established by the legislation of the Republic of  Armenia. As a result, having averaged the received price proposals  and the cost of construction, 61.0 million drams are allocated for  the development of design and estimate documentation, and 2.135  million drams for the examination of design and estimate  documentation.
