Galandar Posted February 14, 2012 Report Share Posted February 14, 2012 Baku 2020 Submits Bid Application Highlighting Four-Cluster Concept Baku 2020 CEO Konul Nurullayeva headed a delegation to submit the bid's applicant file to International Olympic Committee (IOC) headquarters in Lausanne Tuesday. Nurullayeva said on handing over the file, "reflecting our bid's tagline 'Together we can', Baku's Applicant File stresses that it is not simply about what the Olympic Games can do for Baku and Azerbaijan, but what the city and country can offer back to the Olympic Movement". She added, "our Applicant File outlines a Games Plan that will extend the Olympic ideals to millions of new hearts and minds and one that will embrace five continents. It says that awarding Baku the honour of hosting the 2020 Games will give people around the world a true picture of Azeri culture, while at the same time bring a new found sporting confidence to a region that has not had the opportunity to witness first-hand the greatest sporting event on earth". Baku 2020 says its compact concept is based around four clusters that include both competition and non-competition venues that integrate existing, new, permanent and temporary venues. The Waterfront Cluster includes three competition venues hosting seven sports, while the White City Cluster will house the Olympic Village, Media Village, IBC/MPC and Athlete Training Centre, plus three adjacent competition venues. The Airport Cluster makes use of enhanced existing sporting venues and fits in with the city's expansion plans for the Baku Export Centre. At Games-time the Expo will host seven sports and will be a key Paralympic venue. All competition venues, with the exception of three venues for the preliminary football competition, are within a 25-minute travel time of the Olympic Village. http://www.gamesbids...1216136096.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord David Posted February 14, 2012 Report Share Posted February 14, 2012 Interesting, the Velodrome, BMX track and Tennis Center is near the villages, unless of course this is some sort of training venue in the village site? Nope, closer inspection of pictures indicate that they are competition venues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

munichfan Posted February 15, 2012 Report Share Posted February 15, 2012 I didn't get the question. Where do you mean? Go to the Baku White City website and go then to the Olympic Village. There's a map with some pictures on the left hand side. When you expand it, you can see that it looks exactly like the Velodrome in London.

Lord David Posted February 16, 2012 Report Share Posted February 16, 2012 Interesting, they plan to have an 80,000 seater Olympic Stadium, downsized to the legacy 65,000 seater capacity. This would put it in line with all other city main stadium capacities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
