THE Olympic Park is now 83 per cent complete, as the Handball Arena became the latest venue to be finished today.

The 7,000 capacity stadium is where handball, goalball and modern pentathlon will take place during the Games.

And the Basketball Arena is also nearing completion, as the Park shapes up ahead of London 2012.

The Handball Arena - complete with 3,000 square metres of external copper cladding - will become a multi-use sports centre for community use and athlete training after the Games.
The public sector funding package for the Games has stayed at £9.3 billion but the estimated costs for the Olympic Delivery Authority (ODA), in charge of Olympic build and infrastructure, has been cut by £35 million to £7.3 billion.

This is due to a combination of further savings and reducing risks this year, according to the Government Olympic Executive’s Quarterly report on preparations for the London 2012 Games.
In a written ministerial statement, Olympics minister Hugh Robertson said the ODA had made "strong progress" adding: "We continue to seek value for money and cost savings in our day-to-day running of the project."

More than 240 British businesses won contracts for the construction of the 80,000-seat £486million Olympic Stadium and more than 5,250 people have worked on the project during the last three years.

The last piece of turf on the Stadium’s field of play was laid in March and the 6,000-seat Velodrome was unveiled in February.
