RICHMOND OLYMPIC OVAL

PC57-VAN 2799

The Richmond Olympic Oval, or the Richmond Oval is a facility in Richmond, British Columbia, Canada. It is the venue of the speed skating events of the 2010 Winter Olympics, and is the location for the official Olympic anti-doping lab. The total cost of the project was $178 million.

After the Olympics, The Oval will be converted to a multi-use sport facility that will include two Olympic-sized ice rinks, up to eight hardwood ball-sport courts, a gymnasium, a 200 m track, a rubberized turf area, and a high performance centre for elite athletes. The speed-skating oval will be covered with removable flooring and could still be used for competition. The Oval is intended to be the centrepiece of a new urban waterfront neighbourhood featuring a mix of residential, commercial and public amenity development. In an updated communication, the Richmond Olympic Oval reconfirmed that it "...will shed its long track speed skating configuration for a multi-sport layout that will accommodate ice, track, court, paddling and fitness users".
