Stadium remodelling: City has awarded contract to general contractor
Next steps: Preparation of the approval and implementation planning - Public presentation of the project
The City of Chemnitz today awarded the contract for the complete remodelling of the stadium on Gellertstraße to the bidding consortium BAM Sports GmbH Düsseldorf and BAM Deutschland AG Stuttgart as general contractor as planned. This was possible following the expiry of the appeal period against the decision of the awarding chamber.
BAM/BAM Sports, which is responsible for the complete planning and construction of the remodelling during ongoing match operations, will now draw up the approval and implementation plans and then submit the building application.
Together with the general contractor, the City of Chemnitz will soon be presenting the entire project to the public.
"I am relieved that we can finally move forward with the awarding of the contract," says Lord Mayor Barbara Ludwig.
