Durban awaits 2010 go-ahead

Durban is still waiting for the green light from the national treasury to start building the R1,8m Senzangakhona Stadium for the 2010 Soccer World Cup.
Preparations to build Durban’s new King Senzangakhona Stadium for the 2010 Soccer World Cup were on track, but the City was waiting for the go-ahead from the national treasury to start the construction, the SABC reports.

City Manager Mike Sutcliffe said that the old stadium had already been demolished, some basic earthworks have been done and at present something like 2000 concrete piles were being put into the ground.

The name of the consortium set to build the R1.8 million stadium will be announced on Thursday.

But the city council have not yet got the green light from the national treasury to start building, the report said.
