Olympic Park, London

For the 2012 games, a new stadium will be built in Stratford, East London and will have a capacity of around 80,000. Construction is due to start in mid 2008 and should be completed in mid 2011, just over a year before the opening ceremony.

Team McAlpine won the tender for the stadium construction and have extensive experience of sports venue design and construction. Two of their more notable projects were the Olympic Stadium in Sydney and the Emirates Stadium, home of Arsenal FC
