The London 2012 Olympic Games Days To Go

The London Olympics before there are 4 years nowing, but because sweep across the global financial storm and wreak havoc at the beginning in 2012, the impact on London Olympics has already appeared. Someone has already equated the London Olympics with that of 1948. Because of influencing by war, that Olympic Games became very in 1948 " Simple and crude " One session. Though the London Olympics is unlikely to become like that miserably, the relevant experts in Britain claim, the athletes participating in the contest must make psychological preparations, the disparity with Beijing Olympic Games was obvious at that time.

Recently, two orders about the London Olympics are assigned: First, simplify venues; Second, suspend the venues to be newly built in the plan, switch over to utilizing old venues to carry on the use of transformation. The purpose to do it in this way is very obvious too, only for the budget under 9,300 million pounds.

The athletes participating in 2012 Olympic Games will find, their residence will be not so good as Beijing Olympic Games far, because the room is much smaller.

Though because the room rate glides, the government of London fears not to regain the cost after the Olympic Games, has already already the athletes' village that built 4200 sets in the original plan compressed to about 3300 sets, but London BOCOG sent out yesterday " SOS signal " ,Hope the government takes out 250 million pounds, so as to ensure the athletes' village can be built well on schedules. In fact, London BOCOG thinks, 250 million pounds may not be certain enough, 400 million pounds were just just good.

London BOCOG warns, if British government does not take this sum of money out, will probably stop work at the beginning next year because of being short of fund in the athletes' village. It is reported, it is urgent that the British government will put 2 billion pounds to use

Fund, take 400 million pounds out to help meet an urgent need from it, and these urgent fund of 2 billion pounds is a part in budget of 9,300 million pounds for 2012 Olympic Games of London. The athletes' village will be a part of spending money in construction of the 2012 London Olympics most, it is estimated the amount of money will reach 1 billion pounds.

Because of outburst of financial crisis, developer Land Company already more and more difficult loan reach enough funds in bank Liz have, the athletes' village faces the danger that stops work. " The credit crisis is striking the Olympic Games, is short of fund most at present in our athletes' village and the relay centre. " President ODA Amity responsible for Olympic venues and build says, " But in any case, the fund of the athletes' village must be put in place on time, because our time is limited, it is fixed too. The project of the athletes' village can't even be stopped for one quarter, if does not want to wait until sitting down in respects and discussing slowly, then sign the agreement, the words that and then went into operation, the athletes' village is certainly unable to complete on time, the London Olympics was very unbearable at that time. " On schedule, the athletes' village should be completed in November of 2011.


The natatorium of the Olympic Green will become one of the light spots of the London Olympics, will also cost 40 million pounds to build a comprehensive hall incorporating loosing the pool and fitness center into an organic whole by costing the natatorium at 300 million pounds according to schedule. However, because the economic crisis comes, the construction plan of 40 million pounds vanished like soap bubbles yesterday. There is a wave making device in the pool to relax, there is springboard too, wash the gutter, the local government originally hopes it can become a good supplement of natatorium, but because worry being influenced by economic crisis, the developer is unable to melt enough fund, the comprehensive hall can only delete from the plan.

In order to save the expenses of about 100 million pounds, London BOCOG has major operation to the media workspace too, originally plan to build huge press center and world and relay the centre plan and already vanish like soap bubbles, no longer build the permanent building than shrinking by 80% in the plan in scale at present, but substituted by low-cost building temporarily. So enormous a change, changes the largest one of 20122 venues too.

The press center of the London Olympics will be the place where 20000 reporters work from all parts of the world, takes up an area of enormous shell's shape building of 1,300,000 sq.ft.s from 6 to 8 in the original plan. In designer's eyes, this will be the pearl on the imperial crown, but all these have already changed. In the new design, the main area of press center has been lessened to 300,000 sq.ft., only accounts for in fact 1/5 of the area. World relays the centre, takes up an area of 600,000 sq.ft., and one is built temporarily. Media 380 million in budget of district in the original plan, redesign, cost, reduce 100 million about.

For save expenses, London BOCOG determine, the basketball competition of the London Olympics will place on two halls' hitting in 2012, among them about 70 matches place on the alley of Wembley, but semifinals and final will be placed on spending 60 million pounds to build
