Completed in 2007, this hub has a GFA of 280,000 square meters and comprises:

  • 55,000-seat stadium with retractable roof and refurbished existing indoor stadium;
  • 3,000-seat multi-purpose Indoor arena, 6,000-seat aquatic & water leisure center;
  • Sports administration offices, sports information resources center & museum;
  • Sports medicine, sports science center, commercial developments & MRT interface;
  • Public realm & art, pedestrian links, waterfront promenade & watersports facility; and
  • Parking Lots & road infrastructure network.

WT managed to reduce the cost between the original bid and BAFO, despite an increase to the scope of facilities and tender prices.
