The Municipal Council called to approve the preliminary project of the "adaptation interventions" of the ice rink which will mainly consist in covering the existing Speed Skating facility for the next Winter Olympics is convened for this evening in Baselga di Pinè.

The site of the newspaper L''Adige (in the article also the rendering of the project here), reporting the agenda of the Municipal Council of the Trentino municipality, disseminates the first information on the project entrusted at the beginning of September to a pool of designers composed by the “Studio Zoppini Architetti” of Milan, which had already designed the Oval for the 2006 Turin Olympics and which has now followed the architectural design of the pinewood structure. The structural design was carried out by the Trentino studio "Archest" in via Francesco Ambrosi and the geological design by the geological study "GeoAlp" in San Cristoforo di Pergine and finally the design of the systems by the Milanese technicians of "United Consulting". The article reports the words of the mayor of Baselga: "The new Ice Rink Oval will be a" light structure ", with steel elements, concrete brushes and large windows on the side facing Costalta and can hold up to 5,900 spectators and the The new structure will occupy an area of 18 thousand square meters and will have a maximum height of 17 m, the hockey and short-track hall will be connected to the building with a functional tunnel, making best use of the dressing rooms, services and rooms already present in this structure. All the refrigeration systems will be redone (using glycol gas instead of ammonia) and the same concrete track, while the structure will rest on a wide piling given the swampy nature of the land. The overall economic framework for the new structure is just over 50 million euros, with 9 million dedicated to the preparation for the Olympic event (facilities and grandstands). The preliminary project has already had the approval of the technical bodies of Coni and of the Milano-Cortina 2026 Foundation, and once approved, all the subsequent phases will be followed by the extraordinary commissioner Luigivalerio Sant'Andrea, who will coordinate procedures and technical-administrative aspects to proceed quickly towards the executive project and the assignment of the works.
