鈥楾he worst鈥 planning
Print Edition
INTERNATIONAL Olympic Committee vice president John Coates has called Brazil’s preparations for the 2016 Rio Games “the worst” in his experience and critically behind schedule, but warned there was no “plan B” to find another host.
Attending an Olympic forum in Sydney, Coates told delegates that construction had not commenced on some venues, infrastructure was significantly delayed and water quality was also a major concern two years out from the Games.
“The IOC has formed a special task force to try and speed up preparations but the situation is critical on the ground,” Coates said.
“The IOC has adopted a more hands-on role, it is unprecedented for the IOC but there is no plan B. We are going to Rio.
“We have become very concerned, they are not ready in many many ways.”
