Adelaide Oval redevelopment goes ahead
The major benefits of the redevelopment, which is due to be complete in time for the World Cup Rugby 2003, include:
- Construction of two new, covered grandstands on the eastern side of the Oval, with a combined seating capacity of about 4,700.
- Construction of a south mound stand with a seating capacity of about 950.
- Installation of a permanent video replay screen.
- Construction of a 300-seat members' dining room on level 3 of the Bradman Stand.
The redevelopment will see the members' reserve extended to include all of the covered seating in the Edwin Smith and Bradman Stands. This 40% increase in reserved seating will enable Adelaide Oval membership to increase accordingly - enabling many members of the public to be offered membership earlier than anticipated.
