Iconic venues close, clustered, compact

Highlights A new Commonwealth Games Park housing over 90%

of the competition and training venues within a single cluster one of the most compact Commonwealth Games concept designs ever developed

Competition and training venues within the Games Park are no more than 1.2km from the Games Village and the three off-site competition venues are no more than 35km away

All planned competition venues will be developed by 2016 allowing a comprehensive test event programme, including the 2016 South Asian Games and providing Commonwealth Games Associations with the opportunity to benefit from the use of the venues through the Athlete Training and Development Support Programme

All new competition venues will be financed and owned by the Government, guaranteeing venue use and control

The competition schedule provides depth of competition across 17 sports to stimulate interest in the Games at a local, national, regional and international level

High quality venues, competition schedule and a festival atmosphere will provide the best possible opportunity for athletes to excel, whilst optimising broadcast and media opportunities to enhance the Commonwealth Games brand

All permanent venues have a clear legacy brief, integral to delivery of the Ministry of Sports new seven-year Strategic Plan and with a long term Sports City vision to create a new venue for world sport.

Competition schedule

Hambantotas competition schedule is based on meeting all the expectations of athletes and officials, International Federations (IFs), Commonwealth Games Associations (CGAs), broadcasters and spectators. It aims to provide athletes across all sports with the best possible experience during the Games, through appropriate scheduling, to help them achieve their optimal sports performances.

The schedule is informed by previous Commonwealth Games and seeks to maximise spectator attendance and global television interest. It covers two weekends on which medals in the core Commonwealth sports of athletics, swimming and rugby will be won. There is also a spread of medals throughout the 11 day schedule to maximise and maintain interest for the duration of the Games, culminating in the final weekend.

Designed with effective operational delivery in mind, the capacities; co-location of sports in competition venues within the compact Commonwealth Games Park (the Games Park) and transport infrastructure have all been carefully considered.

The 17 sports have been selected to maximise competition and interest in the Games at a local, national and international level.

If Gymnastics was to adopt age limits and rules of the Youth Olympic Games, inclusion of the sport within the programme would require review and further discussion with the Commonwealth Games Federation (CGF).

Hambantotas sport and venue strategy Hambantotas bid is unique in that all but three of the competition venues are in a single cluster the Games Park which also houses the Games Village and training venues for most sports. This means that the majority of athletes will have to travel no further than 1km from the Games Village to their respective competition or training venue.

This compact concept also provides reduced overlay, transport, security, technology and workforce costs, whilst delivering benefits to the athletes, officials, the Games Family and spectators.

Each venue will provide athletes with a high quality competition and training environment to facilitate optimal performance, whilst also addressing the needs of officials, the Games Family and spectators.

The Games Park cluster will stage the entire sports programme apart from the Shooting, located away from the Games Park due to logistics and safety implications; Triathlon; and Cycling (Road and Time Trial). All these events will be located approximately 35km from the Games Park in a second cluster in Tissamaharama (the Tissa cluster).

Tissamaharama is a culturally significant town that dates to the third century BC. It is being restored as a historic heritage city and will be the cultural capital of the Southern Province. Tissamaharama is also one of the hotel clusters (as detailed in Theme 12) with many spectators staying in this area.

All competition venues apart from the world class Mahinda Rajapaksa International Cricket Stadium (which opened in 2011) are new build and form part of the overall masterplan. This masterplan has used best practice principles to ensure that each venue has a clearly defined legacy brief and is only a permanent venue if there is a proven long term legacy need. All the competition venues, apart from the Velodrome, will be developed regardless of the outcome of Hambantotas bid.

Aspects such as event-related transport and security requirements are fully integrated in to the design. This is a key benefit that will facilitate efficient and cost effective operational planning for the Games.

Competition venue overlays have been planned in accordance with CGF guidelines and in consultation with IFs.

A unique spectator experienceThe masterplan for the Games Park is designed around two main axes designated as boulevards. These boulevards provide pedestrian-only access to the venues and open plazas surrounding them. They provide a central thoroughfare and hub of activity for spectators. The boulevards will be lined with entertainment, concessions and design elements such as water features, to generate a festival atmosphere for the 125,000 spectators expected to visit the Games Park on an average day. This atmosphere will be facilitated by a Live Site, with entertainment and big screens in the open plazas creating an exciting buzz for athletes and spectators alike.

Convenient access to training venuesThe training needs for all sports are met by a temporary Training Village, adjacent to the Games Village, combined with additional training provision at some competition venues, and an athletics track, indoor sports facilities and 50m pool in the Games Village.

Designed with legacy in mindThe masterplan proposals fit with the Districts long term development plans, and ambition for Hambantota to become an economic hub, one of five metro cities in Sri Lanka and a new venue for world sport as described in Themes 1 and 5.

The masterplan will be integral to delivery of the Ministry of Sports new seven-year Strategic Plan. All planned venues will be ready by 2016 for the South Asian Games and will also provide world class venues for use by CGAs as part of the Athlete Training and Development Support Programme.

A brief summary and images of each competition venue is set out over the following pages. A full set of block plans is contained in the Block Plan File.

Mahinda Rajapaksa International Cricket Stadium The Mahinda Rajapaksa International Cricket Stadium opened in February 2011 and staged two matches during the ICC 2011 Cricket World Cup. The stadium was completed, from design to construction and fit out, in only 14 months.

The current capacity of 34,300 (20,000 seated) will be increased to 60,000 prior to the ICC T20 World Cup in 2012, reinforcing the stadiums position as the premier cricket venue in Sri Lanka and as an excellent anchor facility within Sports City.

It will provide a stunning location to commence and conclude the Games, hosting spectacular Opening and Closing Ceremonies. It will also stage Archery during the Games, with seating for 2,500 provided predominantly as temporary overlay.

Venues (new)

Athletics StadiumA new purpose-built Athletics Stadium, with a Games-time capacity of 40,000, will be developed by 2014 and used in 2016 for the South Asian Games (2016 SAG). During the 2018 Games, it will stage both Athletics and Rugby 7s. Temporary overlay will accommodate the two days of Rugby 7s competition within the athletics in-field, providing a high quality playing and spectating environment.

The Athletics Stadium will provide a high quality competition venue for athletes to excel in one of the Games showcase sports. The venue will be fronted by a central landscaped plaza, with large screens and concessions to provide a gathering space for spectators.

There will be a warm-up track and jump/throw areas adjacent to the Athletics Stadium, with direct and secure access into the competition area. The warm-up track will be retained in legacy mode which, combined with the Athletics Stadium, will provide the premier athletics venue in Sri Lanka for national, regional and international events. There will also be an athletics track in the Games Village for training.

Post-Games, the capacity will be reduced to 25,000 to provide a multi-purpose stadium suitable for hosting international, national, regional and local events for athletics, rugby and football. Regional sports federations for the Southern Province will be housed within the Athletics Stadium, making it the regional centre for sport. This new 25,000 capacity stadium will be developed regardless of whether Hambantotas bid is successful.

Hockey Stadium The Hockey Stadium will be an iconic venue, providing a purpose-built venue for Hockey during the Games.

Developed by 2014, two new full size synthetic hockey pitches will be built in accordance with FIH/CGF requirements, with associated changing and spectator accommodation.

At Games-time, the main pitch will have a spectator capacity of 5,000, with 2,000 temporary seats for the secondary pitch.

Post-Games, the venue will provide a lasting legacy as the new home for the Sri Lanka Hockey Federation. It will be developed regardless of whether Hambantotas bid is successful and have a viewing capacity of 2,500.

International Aquatics CentreThe International Aquatics Centre will comprise two 50m ten-lane swimming pools and a 33m x 25m diving pool. An iconic building will provide a stunning landmark at the southern access to the Games Park.

The project is due to commence in 2012 and will be completed by 2014 in readiness for the 2016 SAG. It will therefore provide a tried and tested world class competition venue and high performance environment for athletes.

Spectator capacities for the swimming and diving pools will be 5,000 and 2,500 respectively, reflecting the popularity of aquatics in Sri Lanka.

As there are currently no indoor 50m swimming pools or diving facilities within Sri Lanka, the International Aquatics Centre will be retained post Games to become a centre of excellence for swimming within the Southern Province. It will be a key venue for the Sri Lanka Aquatics Sports Union to host international, national, regional and local events. It will also provide opportunities for all to participate, from elite level to learn to swim programmes, and will be an integral part of Sports Citys role as a new venue for world sport.

It will be a state of the art Meetings, Incentives, Conventions and Exhibitions (MICE) venue and will provide an important source of commercial revenue generation within the mixed zone of the Sports City.

The Multi-Sport Complex will also house the new National Sports Museum, which will showcase Sri Lankan sporting achievements as an inspiration for future generations.

This will be the only multi-purpose indoor sports centre in the District and a key recreational sporting facility for the 8,000 residents on-site including students of the new sports university. In legacy mode, the lawn bowls greens will be used as either formal outdoor sports pitches or green space to complement the indoor sporting provision. Construction will start in 2012 and will be completed by 2014.

Main ArenaThe Main Arena, designed as a flexible, multi-purpose facility, will stage Gymnastics (artistic and rhythmic) as well as Netball (finals). Its flexible design means it can easily be transformed, through overlay, into a world class gymnastics venue that meets FIG/CGF requirements, with an easy transition from gymnastics to the netball finals.

Construction of the 5,000 capacity venue will start in 2012 and be completed by 2014.

Post-Games, as a multi-purpose arena, it will accommodate entertainment, sporting, cultural and music events an important leisure and entertainment hub for the resident community.

VelodromeIf Hambantota is selected to stage the Games, a new Velodrome will be built within the Games Park. This will be the only velodrome in Sri Lanka and will be a permanent facility, completed by early 2017. The velodrome will meet all UCI and CGF requirements and will provide a high quality cycling environment.

Following the Games, the Sri Lankan Cycling Federation will use this venue as a catalyst to develop the track discipline of the sport. There is significant interest and participation in road cycling and this interest will be harnessed, using the new Velodrome, to develop track cycling.

Main Media CentreThe Main Media Centre (MMC) for the Games will combine the Main Press Centre (MPC) and International Broadcasting Centre (IBC), thus providing a more cost-effective solution with respect to shared facilities. Located close to the media accommodation to the north of the Games Park, it provides a highly convenient, easily accessible and fully equipped facility to meet the needs of the media.

In legacy mode the MMC building will be incorporated as part of the Business and IT Park.

Off-site venues

Ranminithenna Shooting RangeThe Ranminithenna Shooting Range will be the only permanent venue located outside of the Games Park, approximately 35km away. It will be a new build venue specifically for the Games and will accommodate all four shooting disciplines in accordance with IF/CGF requirements.

In legacy mode, this permanent venue will be used as the Joint Civilian Military Sports Shooting Venue for the development of shooting in Sri Lanka, owned by the Ministry of Defence and maintained by the Sri Lankan Navy.

TriathlonTriathlon will be staged in and around the ancient city of Tissamaharama, approximately 35km from the Games Park. The freshwater Tissa Lake and the surrounding network of new wide roads (being developed as part of the Districts long term transport development plans) will provide an excellent location.

Temporary overlay will provide spectator capacity for 2,000 at the transition area, with additional spectator seating/standing areas provided along the course. Road closures will be in place during the event.

Road-based eventsThe Cycling Road Race, Time-Trial and Marathon events will provide an opportunity to showcase the District and the diverse blend of historical, cultural and natural beauty for which Sri Lanka is world renowned.

As for Triathlon, both the Road and Time Trial Cycling will start and finish in Tissamaharama. There will be a temporary spectator capacity of 1,000 at the start/finish zone, with additional spectator areas provided at prime locations throughout the course.

The marathon will start at Embilipitiya and follow a scenic route through the District, finishing at the Athletics Stadium.

Road closures will be in place for all road based events.

Marketing and ticketing strategies (as detailed in Theme 7) will encourage spectators, including school children to line the route.

The proposed courses for triathlon and the road-based events will be adopted as annual events within the District from 2014 onwards. The purpose of this is four-fold:

To raise awareness of the respective events and proposed courses in the build up to the Games

To support the development of local talent and the nations performance and medal winning ambitions

To encourage the uptake of each sport through an open event that provides opportunities for participation at all levels

To provide local event management and delivery experience in the respective sports.

Q8.08Use table 8.8 to indicate for each venue (competition venues + IBC + MPC) which organisation is responsible for the various phases in the development of the venue.

Respective responsibilities

As detailed in Table 8.8, the Government is responsible for the feasibility, design and construction of all permanent competition venues and the MMC. The Hambantota 2018

Organising Committee (OC) will be responsible for all temporary infrastructure and overlay.

Where applicable, pre-Games operation (from 2016 onwards for all new venues) will be the responsibility of the Government, primarily through the Ministry of Sports. This operational approach will ensure that Games-time usage and commercial rights requirements are met and that the venue legacy brief is delivered through efficient and effective facility management.

Q8.09Regarding permanent construction and/or Games Overlay, for each organisation (e.g., OC, government) that will manage a tender for the construction of permanent or temporary venues, explain the tendering process, including major phases, timelines, protest and appeal procedures, environmental impact assessments and details of the possibility of foreign companies submitting tenders.

Is this process subject to any standing laws, codes or regulations by the city, region, country or other organisation? Is there a preparedness by government to amend existing legislation or adopt new legislation to allow for the fast tracking of Games developments in order to meet Games planning and staging requirements?

Hambantotas bid to host the Games is unique as it provides a catalyst for the development of a new Sports City in Hambantota. All except one venue (the existing Mahinda Rajapaksa International Cricket Stadium) will be a new build. All planned venues are due for completion between 2014 and 2016.

In developing the Sports City concept, extensive masterplanning has taken place to ensure a development that fits with the long term development plan for

the District, as set out in the Greater Hambantota Development Plan.

The Government will be responsible for the tender for construction of all permanent venues. The procurement of temporary overlay works will be the responsibility of the OC.

For each venue, standard Government procurement processes will be followed in line with the National Procurement Agencys (NPA) Government Procurement Guidelines 2006 (the Guidelines).

The NPA was established under Presidential directive and the Guidelines enhance the transparency and consistency of the Government procurement process (through adherence to prescribed standards and the provision of fair opportunity for interested parties). The Guidelines maximise economy, timeliness and quality of procurement resulting in the financially most advantageous and highest quality solution. These Guidelines are applicable to all procurements, irrespective of the source of funding i.e. whether it is financed in whole or in part by the Government.

All funding must be in place and committed prior to the commencement of the procurement process via the appointment of a Procurement Committee (PC) and Technical Evaluation Committee (TEC).


Them

e 8:

Spo

rt a

nd V

enue

s

110 In addition, the Procuring Entity must confirm to the NPA that it has:

Carried out initial environmental examination (IEE), environmental impact assessment (EIA), social impact assessment (SIA), and any other such procurement preparedness activities relevant to the project

Completed land acquisition and resolved compensation, re-settlement issues, including relocation of utilities and such other matters which are necessary for the uninterrupted implementation of the project.

For the Sports City project, all venues will be funded by the Government and the land is owned by the Government.

Tendering process

Major phasesThe procurement process comprises the following phases:

Pre-qualification (PQ): Invitations are advertised in at least one widely circulated national newspaper, on the NPA website and other relevant websites for National Competitive Bidding (applicable for most Government funded projects). The PQ phase assesses the capacity and capability of, and financial resources of, bidders to deliver the contract tender.

Issue of bid documentation: Standard bid documentation is sent to pre-qualified bidders for them to develop their proposals. The standard bid documentation may be amended to reflect the specific requirements of the project. There will be significant input from the OC to ensure that Games-time operational requirements are met, the Sustainable Games Procurement and Practices Policy is adhered to, and venue-specific legacy briefs are delivered.

Bid evaluation: Bid submissions are evaluated by the TEC against a set of pre-defined criteria to determine the best value for money bid. Once the preferred bidder is selected, there will be a period open for appeals following which the contract will be awarded.

TimelinesWhilst there are reasonable time periods (dependent on the value of the project) for the procurement of construction contracts outlined within the NPA Guidance, these time periods may vary with the complexity of the construction. For projects with a value of more than LKR 3,000 million (circa GBP 15 million) the estimated duration is more than 200 weeks for feasibility (75), procurement (60) and construction (100).

The bid documentation issued for the Sports City will include detailed project plans, which will ensure that all planned venues are delivered by 2016. This is well ahead of the Games to allow for a comprehensive test event schedule including the 2016 SAG. The Government also has the capacity to accelerate the process via a Standing Cabinet Appointed Procurement Committee as detailed below.

Foreign companies

International Competitive Bidding (ICB) may be used when the capacity of the domestic contractors, suppliers and service providers are limited. However, in the case of works contracts and in view of the development of domestic construction industry, the possibility of slicing the contract and following a slice and package approach to suit domestic contractors is often considered.

The Procurement Entity is required to give international publicity to the procurement notice in various media to ensure maximum competition. This will include advertising in one widely circulated national newspaper; relevant websites where possible; internationally, such as in Development Gateways dgMarket; and via invitations to embassies and trade representatives of countries from where suppliers and contractors are likely to participate.

If applicable, Limited/Restricted International Competitive Bidding (LIB) procedures may be followed when the invitation to bid is directly addressed to a pre-selected list of international or national suppliers or contractors.

In Procurements under ICB, bidding and contract conditions have equal application to both domestic and foreign bidders, except in complying with the requirements of ICTAD registration and domestic preference criteria for local bidders.

Appeal and protest procedures

As detailed within the NPA Guidelines, the Secretary to the Line Ministry will, within one week of being informed of the preferred bidder recommendation, inform the unsuccessful bidders in writing to make their representations, (if any) against the recommendation/intention to award the contract to the successful bidder, to the Procurement Appeal Board at the Presidential Secretariat.

Any representation of the bidders must be submitted within one week of the bidder being informed of the decision and be self-explanatory to enable the Appeal Board to arrive at a conclusion. After investigating any representations, the Appeal Board will submit its independent report to the Cabinet of Ministers and the Secretary of the Line Ministry. The report will provide their reasons for endorsement of the decision; or for rejecting the decision together with their independent recommendation of contract award.

Fast-track procedure

In extraordinary situations, a Ministry may submit a Cabinet memorandum, specifying the special circumstances, which require a deviation from the general procurement procedures, and may seek Cabinet approval to appoint a Standing Cabinet Appointed Procurement Committee (SCAPC) indicating the limits of Procurement.

A SCAPC may be justified where expeditious processing of Procurement is necessary. The fast-tracking of Games developments in order to meet Games planning staging requirements would be considered as such an extraordinary situation. This approach was successfully implemented to ensure the completion of the Mahinda Rajapaksa International Cricket Stadium in less than 14 months.

112 Q8.11Describe the existing local and regional utility grid and generating plants and their respective status and capacities.

Can the existing distribution system supply the anticipated Commonwealth Games demand in terms of load and reliability? If not, what improvements are planned?

Electrical power

As one of the leading nations in South East Asia, currently 90% of the Sri Lankan population has access to the electricity grid. As a result of Rural Electrification programs, the entire population will have access to the national network by 2012.

Sri Lankas electricity sector is governed by the Sri Lanka Electricity Act No. 20 of 2009 and the Public Utility Commission of Sri Lanka (PUCSL) Act, No. 35 of 2002.

The government-owned electrical utility Ceylon Electricity Board (CEB) is predominantly responsible for electrical generation and transmission, with distribution split into four major geographical divisions, governed by the CEBs General Manager.

Sri Lankas transmission system comprises 350km of 220kV lines, 1,722km of 132kV lines and 53 grid substations. The development and strengthening of the transmission and associated grid substation facilities are of paramount importance to meet the growing energy demands over the next decade.

The demand for electricity is around 8% of current capacity per annum and this is estimated to increase in line with the anticipated increase in post-conflict economic activities, particularly tourism.

The improvement to the transmission system is mandated by the Electricity Act and regulated by the PUCSL Act. Several transmission projects have already been initiated with the assistance of international funding agencies.

Currently, both the CEB and Independent Power Producers (IPPs) supply the national grid. A total of 16 hydro power plants (1207 MW), 6 thermal power plants (538 MW) and one wind power plant of 3 MW (situated in Hambantota) are in operation under the CEB. The CEB has a total installed capacity of circa 2,684 MW.

In addition IPP thermal plants have a capacity of 837MW and IPP renewables provide 211MW capacity. The development of two coal power projects (900MW and 500MW) is also in progress.

The strategy adopted by the Ministry of Power and Energy to purchase electricity from the renewable energy technologies has enabled many small power producers (SPPs) to generate and sell hydro power to the national grid. By September, 2010, the total number of mini hydro projects which commenced commercial operation had increased to 83 adding a total of 185MW to the national grid. Two biomass projects (11MW) and three wind power projects (30MW) have also already been commissioned.

Games-time load demand

Anticipated load during the Games will be supplied through an enhanced network. As part of the overall development of the Southern Province there are ongoing enhancements planned to meet the increased demand. These enhancements include:

The provision of a new 132kV grid sub-station in Suriyawewa (approximately 2km from the Games Park). This sub-station will meet the peak load demand (estimated at 25MW) during the Games.

An overall grid design that will ensure dual feed from two distant power stations for greater reliability.

Q8.12What will be the process for obtaining additional power beyond the capacity of the local system from other sources?

In developing the masterplan and long term plans for the District, consideration has been given to the provision of additional power supplies to ensure that increased capacity demands will be met.

The District is currently provided with power from two main generating plants linked to the National Grid. The Main Central Infrastructure Services Plant, located to the north east of the Games Park, will also have the requisite number of flatbed truck mounted Standby Generators. The Games-time standby power supply will not be connected to the National Grid, but will instead have truck-mounted 100% on-site standby generator capacity.

Q8.13Describe the state and private ownership of the local and regional distribution systems and how they are structured and managed.

The state-owned CEB is the largest electricity company in Sri Lanka. With a market share of nearly 100%, it controls all major functions of electricity generation, transmission, distribution and retailing in Sri Lanka. It is one of the only two on-grid electricity companies in the country; the other being the Lanka Electricity Company.

Within CEB, the Districts electricity distribution is overseen by the CEB Assistant General Manager (AGM) for the R4 area. The transmission function is overseen by the AGM (Transmission).

The transmission and distribution networks in Sri Lanka, the Southern Province and District (which encompasses the Games Park and all off-site venues) are all in the ownership of the CEB.

The CEB has a total installed capacity of 2,684MW, of which approximately 1,290MW is from thermal energy and 1,207MW is from hydro-electricity.

The distribution system is well connected through the transmission system and consists of 33kV lines as the medium voltage distribution lines. There are no privately-owned local or regional distribution systems in the area.

Q8.14What is planned for the supply of high quality, filtered power to specialised equipment in locations Games wide?

The quality of supply provided by CEB is subject to the statutory regulations which set limits on voltage and frequency variations. Voltage variation at 33kV level is plus/minus 1% with supply frequency of 50Hz. The requisite safeguards will be in place to ensure avoidance of fluctuations and voltage drops.

Q8.15Provide a guarantee from the relevant authorities that all competition and major non-competition venues (IBC, MPC, Games Village) will be provided with sufficient energy supplies for conduct of the Games.

Please see Guarantee 8.15 in the Guarantees File.

Q8.16Provide a guarantee that the test event programme of the Organising Committee will conform to CGF requirements for testing and readiness including timing and appropriate financing.

Test events

A test event programme will be developed, in accordance with CGF and IF requirements, to verify the operational efficiency of all venues. These will be programmed, following completion of the venues, predominantly throughout 2017, but will commence in 2016 with the 2016 SAG.

The programming of test events from 26 months prior to the Games will provide more than adequate time to test the transport, security, technology, accreditation and operational systems across all sports to ensure they meet the Games-time requirements.

The OC will submit the proposed test event programme for approval by the CGF Executive. Please see Guarantee 8.16 in the Guarantees File.

Q9.01The Commonwealth Games Village is one of the largest projects an OC must undertake in preparing for the Commonwealth Games. The CGFs requirements for the Commonwealth Games Village are laid down in the CGF Constitution and Regulations, the Host City Contract and the Games Manual on the Commonwealth Games Village and CGA Services. Post-Commonwealth Games legacy must also be carefully considered.

Designs for previous Commonwealth Games Villages have included new residential housing projects, campus-style villages and privately-operated housing schemes. Local architecture and design companies should be encouraged to take part in designing the Commonwealth Games Village to help promote local culture and to publicise striking local architectural features and construction techniques.
