STADIUMS/TRAINING GROUNDS
Stadiums
Both countries consider stadium renovation andconstruction to be of key importance to the de-velopment and promotion of national football.We will be providing eight state-of-the-art sta-diums for the European Championship Finals -four in each country. Sixteen of the 31 final roundmatches will be held in Austria, and 15 will takeplace in Switzerland. A detailed schedule ofmatches is to be found in chapter 1. Both associa-tions will supply the necessary technical infra-structure and will fulfil the basic requirements setdown in the schedule of conditions.Three of the eight stadiums are in use. The twomodern stadiums of Vienna and Innsbruck are be-ing extended; the stadium in Basle was recentlyopened (March 2001).Three other of the eightstadiums are currently under construction,(Salzburg, Geneva and Berne). Finally, the remain-ing two are in planning (Klagenfurt and Zurich).Six of the eight stadiums are multi-purpose com-plexes, which will continue to be used after EURO 2008.These complexes offer other ameni-ties, such as hotels, shopping centres, offices, busi-ness premises, retirement flats and fitness centres, aswell as football facilities.Thanks to this multi-pur-pose approach and the use of cutting-edge tech-nology (such as solar panels on the stadium roof toprovide energy) it will be possible for the stadiumsin both countries to be used cost-effectively on along-term basis.All the stadiums were planned in conjunctionwith the local security authorities and complywith UEFA security requirements for internation-al matches.This means that fixed surveillance cam-eras both inside and outside the stadiums and po-lice command posts with all the essentialsurveillance installations are part of the basicequipment in every stadium. We have examinedthe technical specifications of the draft stadiumagreement in the UEFA schedule of conditions indetail and included them in all our stadium proj-ects (see the 8 checklists in Volume II, chapter 5).Facilities such as segregated approach areas andseating areas for fans of each team, security equip-ment and UEFA-compliant media installationswere included in the plans.The wishes and needsof the major television broadcasters in both coun-tries were also taken into account in the plans
from the start.The projects will be monitored dur-ing the construction phase by experts from the te-levision broadcasting companies.The stadium projects are being financed in differ-ent ways in each of the applicant countries. InSwitzerland, financing will be provided primarilyby private investors. The government also con-tributed funds towards the construction of newstadiums as early as the late nineties. Thanks tothese initial contributions and investments fromindustry, three of the four planned stadiums forEURO 2008 are already complete or under con-struction (Basle, Geneva, Berne). The fourth sta-dium is at an advanced stage of planning. It is dueto be opened in 2006, irrespective of UEFA's de-cision on where EURO 2008 will be held.The stadiums in Austria are being financed byagreements between the government, the states andthe municipalities. In principle, the government,states and municipalities aim to provide a third ofthe financing each. In the city of Vienna, the costsare being divided equally between the governmentand the municipality of Vienna.The federal govern-ment is providing a financing guarantee for theAustrian stadium projects, backed up by relevantdecisions by the Cabinet. It is only supporting proj-ects which aim to set up stadium infrastructure.Allsuitable projects were checked and approved by ex-ternal, recognised experts in accordance with theFederal Law on the Promotion of Sports.
The following venues are proposed:Austria Switzerland1 Vienna 5 Zurich2 Klagenfurt 6 Basle3 Salzburg 7 Berne4 Innsbruck 8 Geneva
Appendix 5.2 gives an overview of the stadiumsand the venues.
The following includes descriptions and illustra-tions of the eight stadiums.Details of each stadiumcan be found in the relevant checklist in VolumeII, chapter 5.The checklist shows that UEFA's re-quirements for each aspect of infrastructure (in-cluding media, security and VIP hospitality) havebeen fulfilled.We will support precise monitoring of the techni-cal requirements by a UEFA inspection commit-

tee.Moreover,we will be very happy to provide allthe documents and contact persons required byUEFA for the inspection of all the stadium facili-ties and for effective monitoring of progress inrenovation and construction work.All such workwill be completed by December 2006 at the latestas required.
Training Centres
We wish to offer UEFA proposals for suitabletraining centres close to both venues and hotels,and will accept the final decision of UEFA after ithas examined the proposals in detail.The criteriafor team hotels were also taken into account in theselection of training centres. Our aim was to find
premises which were centrally located but whichstill met participants' needs for rest and recovery.The proposed training centres have often beenused in the past by selected teams from both asso-ciations.As a result, we have an excellent workingrelationship with the owners and managers ofthese facilities, based on trust and ongoing part-nership. All training centres were selected in ac-cordance with the UEFA guidelines on trainingcentres. Particular consideration was given to theneed for press offices, stadium surveillance facili-ties and proximity to the team hotel.
In Volume II, chapter 5, pictures, plans and de-scriptions of all the training centres are shown.The proposed training centres are as follows:

The city
Klagenfurt - the rose of Lake WörtherKlagenfurt is Austria's meeting point between North and South, East and West, where three culturalgroups intersect. It has frequently been awarded the "Europe Nostra Prize" for its exemplary preserva-tion of the old town, a signal of the love and care that is lavished on the city. Klagenfurt offers both pul-sating life and relaxation in pleasant surroundings. Lake Wörther is famous all over the world for thequality of its drinking water, and Klagenfurt is the rose of Lake Wörther.
Situation in the town
The new stadium location is in Klagenfurt-Westin Waidmannsdorf, between the Südring undSiebenhügelstrasse or Glanfurt, approximately 2.7kilometres from the town centre as the crow flies.Since the current Waidmannsdorf stadium wasconstructed, there have been long-term plans toextend its amenities by building sports, leisure andrecreational facilities on the south-eastern sectionof the site.The current stadium complex will beused as a centre for ball sports, connected to asports academy.There is also ample potential for the developmentof a sports park to the east, south and west of thesite.This would make for a smooth transition be-tween the stadium and Siebenhügel recreationalarea.The stadium is located to the south-west of thetown within the curve of the Südring, which runsfrom the west to the south of the town. The Sü-dring provides an ideal link to the main transportnetwork of the state capital. The stadium can bereached by car via the A2 southbound motorwayvia Klagenfurt West junction both from the eastand the west.Vehicles coming from the town cen-
tre can approach the stadium via Siebenhügel-strasse / Waidmannsdorferstrasse. It is approxi-mately 2.5 kilometres from the entrance to thewestbound A2 motorway in Minimundus, approx-imately 4.5 kilometres from the western motor-way junction of Hallegg, approximately 3.5 kilo-metres from Klagenfurt main railway station and4.5 kilometres from Krumpendorf railway station.A reliable link by efficient rail and shuttle bus serv-ices can therefore be guaranteed.The main railway station is close to the centre andcan be reached by bus. Lend and Viktring railwaystations are 10 to 15 minutes away on foot.
Description of the stadium
If UEFA decides in favour of the Austro-Swisscandidacy, a brand new stadium complex will beconstructed in Klagenfurt.The impressive sportingachievements of the Austrian league team, FC Ke-lag Kärnten, and the state of the current Waid-mannsdorf stadium helped accelerate the decisionto build a new stadium. UEFA requirements havebeen included in the plans of the new stadium asfar as possible.

All the main entrances are on the ground floor.There are five separate sections for paying guests,which can be adapted according to spectatornumbers. Every section has its own catering, secu-rity and medical facilities. In front of the westernentrance towers, there will be a two-storey struc-ture with the following functions: Accreditation,Organisation, Media and Prestige partner village.The VIP area will have a glass front offering VIPguests an optimum view of the pitch.There will bea large press conference area below the VIP area.The size of the TV compound is in line with theUEFA schedule of conditions and it is directlylinked to the football stadium.All relevant departments (fire service, building in-spection authorities, underground engineering,town planning, construction) of the city of Kla-genfurt were involved in the planning.An analysisof the feasibility of the structure has also been car-ried out.
Transport
The venue town of Klagenfurt lies directly on animportant motorway and a major Austrian FederalRailways route. It also has an international airport15 minutes from the town centre. Furthermore,there are some other international airports nearby:Ljubljana (Slovenia), Trieste-Ronchi (Italy) andGraz.The two-track, southbound rail route offersan excellent link between Vienna and Italy.At themajor transport hub of Villach, 40 kilometres fromKlagenfurt, further important routes branch off to-wards Germany and Slovenia.The A2 southboundmotorway provides a first-class road connection
between the town of Klagenfurt and Central Eu-rope, once again via the transport hub of Villach.From there, the A10/Tauern motorway leads to-wards Salzburg/Germany, and the A11/Kara-wanken motorway heads towards Slovenia. Com-prehensive parking facilities, combined with anexemplary shuttle service, ensures that motor vehi-cle traffic for major events flows smoothly.There isa total of approximately 5,150 parking spaces avail-able close to the stadium.These can be reached viathe A2 southbound motorway.Visitors will then betransported to the central bus stop west of the sta-dium at the junction of Siebenhügelstrasse and theSüdring. From here, spectators can reach the mainentrance on the north side of the stadium. Passen-gers arriving in Klagenfurt by train will be trans-ferred to shuttle buses at the main railway station.The shuttle bus service will bring them from thestation to the stadium (journey time of approxi-mately 10 minutes).Coaches will be directed to the Südring. Therewill be parking facilities for coaches to the southof the stadium.
Plan of next steps/financing
The stadium will be completed in December2006 in accordance with the deadlines set down inthe UEFA schedule of conditions. Financing willbe provided by the Austrian federal government.Discussions about dividing costs equally betweenthe federal government, the federal state and thetown are being held according to schedule.

The city
Innsbruck - in the heart of the Alps
This city of 128,000 inhabitants is known as thetreasure of the Alps. Innsbruck is surrounded byhigh mountains and is set in a magnificent naturallandscape, which gives it a unique charm.The Ty-rolean regional capital can look back on a livelyhistory,with great names such as Maximilian I andEmpress Maria Teresa associated with it. Innsbruckhas twice been the venue for the Winter Olympicsand offers a mixture of natural wonders, culture,sport and tradition, along with the flair of an in-ternational conference and university city.Innsbruck's development has been determinedabove all by its central position at the intersectionof the most important north-south and east-west
transport axes. Innsbruck, located in the Alps at theheart of Europe, is a communications hub be-tween the economically flourishing, relativelydensely populated conurbations in the north ofItaly and the south of Germany. It also links theSwiss and Eastern Austrian/Eastern Europeancatchment areas. Moreover, Innsbruck's airport(with the latest aircraft approach equipment) is di-rectly linked to the international flight network.Innsbruck has twice staged the Winter Olympicsand is still an important sports centre. It offers awide variety of activities both in summer andwinter, and the citizens of the Tyrolean capital en-joy taking part in sports too: its 45 sports associa-tions, boasting more than 72 clubs and a total ofapproximately 33,000 members, offer somethingfor everyone.
Situation in the town
Since 2000, Innsbruck has had its own single-pur-pose, modern football stadium,Tivoli-Neu, locat-ed to the south of the town on the site betweenthe Olympic ice stadium and the motorway. It isthe home ground of FC Tirol, the Austrian cham-pions from 2000 to 2002.Innsbruck International Airport is approximately15 minutes from the stadium,and 10 minutes fromInnsbruck main railway station. The nearest mo-torway connection is only 5 minutes from the sta-dium by car.The stadium enjoys the advantages of a central lo-cation and excellent accessibility by public trans-port.
Description of stadium
Tivoli-Neu was built in accordance with the win-ning design by Viennese architect,Albert Wimmer(in partnership with Rhomberg constructioncompany from Bregenz), in an architectural com-petition. The stadium is oriented north-south,with transparent roofing over the seating areas. IfAustria and Switzerland are selected to hold theEuropean Championships, it will extend its seatingcapacity to 31,600. A large, 10,000 m2 passagewaywith club premises, sports shops, a fitness centre,massage facilities, etc. has been cleverly integratedinto the stadium complex.The new stadium will be unique in terms of itssuccessful use of urban space and landscaping.
TIVOLI-NEU STADIUM, INNSBRUCK
92
Moreover, the functional areas (training ground,climbing wall) are particularly well-linked and aresuited to long-term use.The Austrian Football Association has already heldinternational matches in the stadium, which cur-rently seats 15,400.
Stadium Operator
The stadium operator is the Innsbruck construc-tion company ISPA, which is owned by the townof Innsbruck.
Transport
The Tivoli sports facilities are currently linked tothe town centre and the main railway station bythree bus lines.The bus stops are at present west ofthe ice stadium in Olympiastraße. One of thethree lines also goes through Resselstraße. TheOlympiastraße, to the north of the current sportsfacilities, forms part of the east-west link betweenthe southern town centre and Innsbruck Ost mo-
torway exit. Resselstraße, to the east of the sportsfacilities, offers a link to smaller towns south ofInnsbruck. There are plans for both lanes of theResselstraße to be put together at the same time asthe work on the sports centre, and for a link fromResselstraße to the Inntal motorway.
Parking requirements at Tivoli-Neu will only bepartially met by parking facilities due to be con-structed for approximately 600 vehicles.The fol-lowing additional measures are proposed:
• Increase the number of parking spaces on thecompetition site
• Construct parking facilities in the northernsection of the Tivoli-Neu development area inOlympiastraße
• Provide further parking areas south of Wiesen-gasse
• Provide more generous bus parking areasCyclists and pedestrians can reach Tivoli stadiumvia the pedestrian/cycleways next to the road.Thislink will be greatly improved by the constructionof a pedestrian/cycle bridge over the tracks nearthe main railway station, which will continuethrough the north-south green belt.

Description of the stadium
The new Zurich Stadium will be constructed bythe end of 2006 on the site of the current HardturmStadium, in the booming suburb of Zurich West. Itwill serve as the home stadium for both the FCZurich and Grasshoppers football clubs.The stadi-um is approximately four kilometres west of the citycentre. The Zurich architects Marcel Meili andMarkus Peter, who enjoy an international reputa-tion,emerged as the clear winners of an overall per-formance study (in partnership with the Conzettengineering company and with Batigroup as gen-eral contractors).This means that the city of Zurichwill acquire a highly modern football stadium withcovered seating for over 30,000 spectators that willbe the only one of its kind in the world.

The city
Zurich - the modern city
The largest city in Switzerland (about 1 million people live in the Zurich region) is a world centre forart, culture, design and architecture - a place that is constantly on the move.The English fashion maga-zine "Wallpaper" voted the Swiss metropolis "most attractive city 2000".All roads lead to the businesscentre of Zurich, a city that never sleeps and has important domestic and international connections.Withreference to the annual Mercer study (the 2001 edition that takes a closer look at 215 cities worldwide),Zurich leads the world in terms of quality of life, just ahead of Vienna.The cities were assessed accord-ing to 39 criteria such as political stability, economic development, medical services, public services andpublic transport.
attached to the symbolic force of the form and thedramatic impact of the stadium access.The outline(form) of the new Zurich Stadium is characterisedby two superimposed pentagons at slightly differ-ent angles.The base area with retail units and a carpark with space for 1,500 vehicles effectivelyforms the stage for the football events, while theroof provides a warm-up terrace for the fans.Above this pedestal is the sharply projecting ringof the upper stands.The pentagonal form, with itssteep downward views from the stands conveys theintimate atmosphere of the inner space, a sort ofgigantic witch's cauldron. The combination of apentagonal inner space with the rectangular play-ing area allows for the best possible seatingarrangement and privileged locations for the box-es and sky boxes.The shape of the stadium bowl isvisible as part of the cityscape from a long distance.The stadium has a generous outer space with twolarge squares that can be used as assembly areas forthe arena.
106

Pfingstweidstrasse with two stops is being con-structed. On the neighbouring site to the south aspecial station for large events is being built.The Zurich Stadium is easily accessible by road,with a motorway exit in the direct vicinity. Suffi-cient parking space can be made available for EURO 2008.This will involve the use of shuttlebuses to make more distant locations accessible.International transport connections are providedby the nearby Zurich main railway station (4 km)and the easily accessible Zurich Unique interna-tional airport (15 km).
Financing
The three landowners are making the ground forthe stadium interior and the multifunctional areaavailable free of charge. The stadium is being fi-nanced via the multifunctional outlets, which willbe rented out at prices in keeping with the loca-tion.The stadium itself will be placed in the handsof an operating company. This company will as-sume responsibility for organising and co-ordinat-ing all activities to make sure that the infrastruc-ture is exploited in the best possible way. Itguarantees that operations are cost-effective and isresponsible for maintaining the stadium.Financing of the stadium project (including itsmultifunctional uses) for the sum of around CHF350 million is being guaranteed by Credit Suisse,which together with other investors has alreadymade it possible for new stadiums to be construct-ed in Basle and Berne.The city of Zurich is one ofthe co-sponsors of the stadium.

Stadium operation
The operational and organisational features of theoverall complex meet UEFA requirements in fullby offering solutions that are rated as excellent byfootball, security and media experts.The stadium construction is divided into separatelayers to ensure that its multifunctional aspects (in-cluding retail and gastronomic outlets) can be op-erated simultaneously and independently. Onlythe hotel extends from the lower part of the build-ing into the ring of the stands, thus benefitingfrom the atmosphere of the stadium interior.The raised warm-up terrace can be reached via adense network of stairways from the eastern andwestern forecourts. The flow of crowds issuingfrom the stadium's own railway station and tramstop will be channelled directly to this terrace bymeans of passageways.Access to the raised area willbe subject to efficient controls.The pentagonal stadium interior practically elim-inates from the spectator area any restricted viewsin the corners of the playing area. The diagonalsections include inner facades, which are reservedfor balconies, boxes, bars and VIP areas due to theirdesirable location.On the other side, the hotel sec-tion completes the inner space, together withmore sky boxes and business clubs.This arrange-ment helps to reproduce the intimate atmosphereof English stadiums and at the same time strength-ens the impression of circular movement.The ground construction, admission of air be-tween the lower and upper layers and the semi-transparent roof afford the best possible conditionsfor growth of natural grass.As on the arena level of an amphitheatre, the func-tional level of the stadium includes the necessaryfacilities for operations, security and media, allarranged in a circular constellation around theplaying area.An interior walkway connects the in-dividual areas, which in turn have their own inte-rior openings.The arrangements for security, op-erations, dressing rooms and media are designed tooptimise each function and, thanks to the addi-tional space available, can be easily adapted to thespecial requirements of EURO 2008.

Great importance is attached to public transport inZurich West. In addition to the existing tram lineto the north of the stadium, a new tram line in the

Description of the stadium
The opening of the new St. Jakob-Park Stadium inMarch 2001 marked the beginning of a new erafor Swiss football. Basle opened the way for a newgeneration of highly modern multifunctional sta-diums in Switzerland. The new arena, the homeground for FC Basel, was built on the site of theold St. Jakob Stadium. The stadium lies approxi-mately three kilometres to the east of the city cen-tre.This district, which is a well-known sports andrecreation area, includes the Basle Sporthalle (ven-ue for Tennis Swiss Indoors) and the new ice-hockey stadium (under construction).
Urban development and architecture
The stadium was built by the world-famous Baslearchitects Jacques Herzog and Pierre de Meuron(their work includes the New Tate Gallery in Lon-don and the Munich Arena, venue for the openingmatch of the 2006 World Cup), in collaborationwith the Marazzi AG engineering company. Thefirst multifunctional stadium in Switzerland in-cludes an old people's home with 107 apartments,
a shopping centre, extensive office space and sev-eral restaurants.The St. Jakob-Park site is enclosed by the railwayline on its northern side, by the River Birs to theeast, the ice-hockey stadium and the Sporthalle tothe south and the motorway slip road to the west.
Stadium operations
The new St. Jakob-Park Stadium is a stadium de-signed primarily for football. It contains over30,000 covered seats and its VIP area offers thehighest possible level of comfort; this includes ex-tensive hospitality areas, eleven boxes (132 seats intotal) and a business area for over 1,000 guests, aswell as the stadium's own TV centre with over 200screens.The stadium is also equipped with a high-ly modern infrastructure that can be used to hostconcerts, shows and festivals.The arrangements for security,operations,dressingrooms and media are designed to optimise eachfunction and, thanks to the additional space avail-able, can be easily adapted to the special require-ments of EURO 2008.

The basement area of the stadium contains a largeshopping centre with total retail space of 16,100m2.Another pioneering aspect is the installation of asolar power generator on the stadium roof, whichis run as part of a feasibility study by the Green-peace environmental organisation.The solar mod-ules convert sunlight into electricity and supplyaround 130,000 kWh annually,which correspondsto the average electricity consumption of 40households. The generator is about 1,200 squaremetres in size and cost EUR 1.23 million. TheCanton of Basel-Stadt made a contribution ofEUR 582,000 towards the investment.
Transport
As at the other playing venues, great importance isattached in Basle to public transport links.The sta-dium has its own railway station (320-metre plat-form), where both suburban and inter-city trainsstop. There are also direct connections to the tramand bus network run by the municipal transportauthority. Basle main station is situated three kilo-metres west of the stadium.The excellent publictransport links mean that when the stadium is fullit is possible for all the spectators to embark incomfort on their homeward journey via publictransport within one hour of the match ending.The Basle-Mulhouse international airport is 10kilometres away.Sufficient parking spaces can be made available forEURO 2008. The stadium has its own under-ground car park, with 700 parking spaces (2 levelsbelow ground). There are additional parkingspaces in the St. Jakob Hall storage area and at the
St. Jakob car park.Other large parking areas can beaccessed by means of shuttle buses.
Financing
The whole new complex was financed by invest-ments totalling CHF 220 million.The main part ofthe stadium investment was borne by various Swisscompanies (Winterthur Insurance, Swiss AccidentInsurance Institute) and a pension fund. No signif-icant amount of public finances was invested in theconstruction, but the responsible office issuedownership of the land with building rights. Thestadium is being refinanced via its multifunctionaloutlets, which will be rented out at prices in keep-ing with the location. A management companywill take charge of the stadium's operations. Thiscompany will assume responsibility for organisingand co-ordinating all activities to make sure thatthe infrastructure is exploited in the best possibleway. It guarantees that operations are cost-effectiveand is responsible for maintaining the stadium.

The city
Berne – city of encounters
The Swiss capital and seat of the Swiss government, has been designated as a UNESCO World Heritagesite, as the city's architecture has remained practically unchanged for centuries.Thanks to its traditionalsandstone buildings, historical towers and eleven unique fountains, Berne is one of the most attractiveand prettiest examples of medieval city architecture in Europe. Berne, the city of encounters, has muchto offer.Anyone who has visited Berne once is always happy to return.
Description of the stadium
The Wankdorf football stadium in Berne is famousfor having staged the 1954 World Cup final be-tween West Germany and Hungary. In terms offootball history, it therefore became a legendary lo-cation for many fans, particularly in Germany.Theold stadium was demolished in August 2001 and isnow being replaced by a new multifunctional con-struction that is due to open in 2005 at the latest.The new stadium,which will also house commer-cial properties, is situated 3 kilometres east of thehistoric centre of Berne. It has an athletics stadiumon its northern side, school and residential build-ings to the west and south, and a large open greenarea ("Allmend") to the east.
Urban development and architecture
The stadium construction is included in theBerne-Wankdorf development plan.This develop-ment plan is a joint exercise between the city andCanton of Berne, the districts of Ittigen and Os-termundigen, the Berne exhibition centre (BEAbern expo) and Swiss Federal Railways (SBB).The
planning project forms part of the promotion ofthe area as a location for exhibitions, sport, leisure,congresses and jobs.
Stadium operations
The new Wankdorf Stadium belongs to the newgeneration of multifunctional stadiums.When fully complete for EURO 2008, the stadi-um will seat more than 42,000 spectators. Con-struction started in August 2001.The structure ofthe stands in the western, northern and easternparts of the stadium allows for an increase of seat-ing capacity to the level required by UEFA for thestaging of quarter-final and semi-final matches ata European Championship.The operational and organisational aspects of theoverall complex are fully in line with UEFA re-quirements.The arrangements for security, opera-tions, dressing rooms and media are designed tooptimise each function and, thanks to the addi-tional space available, can be easily adapted to thespecial requirements of EURO 2008.Although the football stadium is equipped for theneeds of staging international football matches, it
134
5
WANKDORF STADIUM, BERNE
can also be used for large-scale events such as con-certs and popular sports festivals.The stadium itselfand its additional commercial uses are separate en-tities and can be exploited without any mutual in-terference.The objective of the project, apart from giving thesuburb of Wankdorf a well-equipped football sta-dium, was to provide an urban, living centre forthe community.The stadium square connects theexisting suburban residences with the open greenarea and at the same time is the focal point for allsorts of uses, including sports events, a shoppingcentre, VIP rooms, restaurants, schools, offices,service industries and flats.A large, transparent,multi-storey entrance hall willconnect the stadium with the shopping centre.The shopping centre will cover a large surface area(17,000 m2), will include around 30 retail outletsand a COOP Super Center, and will be connect-ed by escalator to the parking levels.To increase the attractiveness of the stadiumsquare, all the services, exhibitions, restaurants andentrances to the shopping centre, offices, school,etc. are grouped around the square. The stadiumsquare is the centre of the development and, to-gether with the stadium and the shopping centre,can be used to stage large events.The two schools and the offices are accommodat-ed in a four-storey building to the south of the sta-dium.This, together with the cantonal administra-tive building on the opposite side, completes thegeographical arrangement. All the entrances arelocated in the stadium square.
Transport
Great importance is attached to public transport inthe area around the Wankdorf Stadium.The stadi-um can be reached by two existing public trans-port routes (one bus line and one tram line) and anew suburban railway station is also due to be inoperation by 2008 (approximately 300 metresnorth of the new stadium complex).The Wankdorf area has its own motorway junctionand links up with the motorways to Zurich/Baseland Geneva.The motorway slip roads are approx-imately 400 metres north-east of the stadium.Sufficient parking spaces can be made available forEURO 2008.The stadium will have its own un-derground car park, with 800 parking spaces.Ad-ditional parking space (multi-storey car park with
2 parking levels and space for 720 vehicles andthree parkings with space for 1600 vehicles) isavailable in the immediate vicinity of the stadiumon the site of the BEA bern expo exhibition cen-tre. Access to extra parking space at more distantlocations will be available via shuttle buses.International transport connections are providedby the nearby Berne main railway station (3 km)and the easily accessible Berne-Belpmoos airport(15 km).
Financing
The land required for the construction is ownedby the community of Berne and is being madeavailable with building rights.Construction of the stadium is guaranteed mainlyby the commitment of private investors.The sta-dium will be refinanced via the multifunctionaloutlets,which will be rented out at prices in keep-ing with the location. A management companywill take charge of the stadium's operations.Thiscompany will assume responsibility for organisingand co-ordinating all activities to ensure that theinfrastructure is exploited in the best possible way.It guarantees that operations are cost-effective andis responsible for maintaining the stadium.The stadium project (including multifunctionaluses) is being financed to the tune of CHF 300million by Credit Suisse,COOP and the Swiss Ac-cident Insurance Institution (SUVA).
