OVERVIEW

1.1

This Commonwealth Games Manual

This Games Manual covers the contractual and organisational obligations of the Venue Development and Games Overlay Programme at a Commonwealth Games. It informs Bid Cities and Organising Committees (OCs) how to identify and understand their specific obligations and describes the best methods of fulfilling these duties at a management and operational level. In addition to an outline of the responsibilities and general scope of this Functional Area, a number of additional appendices have been included within the Manual. These appendices include both requirements and guidelines and are intended to support the development of venue concepts and the establishment of a process for Venue Development and Games Overlay planning, design and delivery. The following aspects of Venue Development and Games Overlay are covered in this manual: Scope and responsibilities of the Venue Development and Games Overlay Functional Area, including key tasks and indicative timelines; Contractual and reporting obligations of the Venue Development and Games Overlay Functional Area; Technical data for the development of competition venues, including: o

Venue capacities (Appendix A);

Indicative space planning schedules (Appendix B); and

Field of Play drawings (Appendix C);

An outline of Games Overlay scope elements, integration with Venue Operations and generic timelines. (Appendix D); and Generic planning principles for competition venues (Appendix E). It should be noted that Appendix A (Venue Capacities), and Appendix C (Field of Play Drawings) include minimum requirements for a Commonwealth Games, and the sport specific areas outlined in Appendix B (Space Schedules) represent requirements which have been developed in close liaison with the International Sport Federations (IFs).

FUNCTIONAL AREA REQUIREMENTS

This section describes the Functional Area (FA) deliverables and provides guidance on what they are and how they should be delivered successfully. Some deliverables are contractual obligations and others are guidelines. The obligations are described in Section 2.4 and the key guidelines are summarised in Section 2.5.

2.1

Overview of Requirements

The Venue Development and Games Overlay Functional Area will have a major role in the delivery of sport venues and non-competition venues. The following is an overview of this Functional Area. Venue Development Venue Development refers to the development of permanent competition and noncompetition venues. The delivery of these is usually the responsibility of the Venue Owner (most often Government Agencies or Private Developers). However the Organising Committee will have a role in ensuring Games requirements are suitably integrated into the projects, through the provision of a Venue Brief and regular monitoring throughout the project. All works are at the Venue Owners cost, though the OC may provide some funds for work not required by the legacy but which makes the Overlay more economic and efficient to install later. Games Overlay Games Overlay refers to the design and construction process related to the installation of temporary facilities to meet Games requirements. This will occur at all competition and noncompetition venues, and may also include the development of complete temporary venues. This process is normally fully managed and paid for by the Organising Committee, and will require significant resourcing, both in-house and outsourced. Commonwealth Games Village and Non-Competition Venues It should be noted that the Venue Development and Games Overlay Functional Area will also likely be responsible for aspects of the development of key non-competition venues, including the Commonwealth Games Village. Should this be the case, specific timelines, guidelines and commitments associated with these facilities are contained in the Villages Manual. It is important that the Venue Development and Games Overlay Functional Area and the Villages Functional Area ensure there is a clear delineation of responsibilities and operational integration for all Villages projects.

CGF Knowledge Transfer Guidelines

The underpinning philosophy of the Commonwealth Games Knowledge Management Programme (GKMP) is to share insights, understanding, tools, systems, information and data between OCs, and also benefit Candidate Cities, through the use of a multi-dimensional knowledge transfer process, which the CGF centrally coordinates to ensure there is a legacy of learning from each edition of the Games. This system ensures greater efficiency and rewards for Host Cities and other entities participating in the Games. It is a requirement of all OCs, their government agencies and Candidate Cities to actively support this programme and to ensure that their staff and contractors are fully engaged in the delivery of this support. Each OC and Candidate City, as a condition of their hosting or bidding for the Games and as part of their undertakings, will be required to commit to a broad and inclusive programme that the CGF will, from time to time, define. For an overview of the global types of information applicable to all functions, which will be needed to support the GKMP, please see the complete listing in the following appendix in the Knowledge Management Games Manual: Appendix D â&#x20AC;&#x201C; CGF Knowledge Transfer Guidelines

JULY 2010

Page 16 of 19

COMMONWEALTH GAMES MANUAL

Overlay & Venue Development Term

Definition

Games Overlay

The adaptation of a venue to meet the specific Commonwealth Games requirements. This includes design and delivery of event-specific temporary installations. It may be added to permanent or temporary venues and facilities, or it may stand alone. It includes temporary products (seating, tents, platforms, ramps, signage, look of the Games treatment, etc.) and services (electrical, mechanical, waste water, ventilation and airconditioning).

Precinct

A number (more than one) of venues and or facilities in close geographical proximity, within a secure perimeter. The operations of the venues / facilities impact on each other and are therefore integrated to the extent necessary.

Public Domain

The area surrounding a Games site, outside of the perimeter, which is impacted by the Games or will have an impact on the experience of the Games constituents. It is designated as such because it's normal day-to-day activities are not typically sufficient to cope with the anticipated Games impacts, therefore requiring additional planning and services by public agencies and authorities, in coordination with the OC. The Public Domain may include the road network, public transport network, Live Sites, key civic locations, and areas leading or adjacent to venues.

Site

General term for all areas where the OC and/or its partners/agencies operate to deliver the Commonwealth Games.

Site Management

The Site Management area, in the immediate pre-Games period, ensures that temporary infrastructure and overlay are installed in accordance with developed plans to meet all venue and facility needs. During the Games, the Site Management function is responsible for repair, replacement, new scope issues and transition to events for Elite Athletes with a Disability. After the Games, it is responsible for retrofit.

Tear-Down

The phase of retrofit of the venue involving removal of physical items such as temporary and portable structures.

Temporaries & Portables (T&P)

Temporary and portable structures, buildings and facilities (e.g. tents, trailers).

Temporary Infrastructure

The event-specific infrastructure required for the Commonwealth Games that is constructed on a temporary basis. It includes temporary products (tents, portable buildings).

Training Venue

A training venue is a site where training sessions are held. They may be established outside the competition venue for athlete training prior to and during the Games. In some cases, competition venues also double as training venues. Training venues, as well as all equipment and facilities included in them, are defined in agreement with the relevant International Federation.

Appendix A – Venue Capacities 1

VENUE CAPACITIES

Capacity guidelines have been developed for each Commonwealth Games sport. It should be noted that these are gross seating capacities (including accredited seating) and represent minimum requirements for Commonwealth Games venues. These capacities are subject to modification for each CG based on the following specific factors: Popularity of the specific sport in the city/country/region. Preferred capacities may be higher and should match the likely demand to maximise the opportunity for the public to attend Commonwealth Games events. Legacy requirements for specific venues/sports The ability to adequately adapt venue capacities through temporary seating

Capacities for Athletics (Race Walks), Cycling (Road and Mountain Bike) and Triathlon represent the minimum seating capacity at the Finish Zone for these events, inclusive of all accredited seating. With respect to these specific events, total spectator capacities will be dependent on various factors, including venue location and ticketing strategy. However as a principle, these events can attract significant numbers of spectators as they will potentially occur within an urban domain and/or parkland and will have expansive footprints. Based on recent Games experience, these venues should be designed to maximise spectator numbers through the provision of standing areas throughout the venue, and where appropriate, public seating areas should also be provided. It is mandatory for these events to provide accredited seating for Games Family, Media (Broadcasting and Press), Athletes and Technical Officials, which will be located at the Finish Zone. It is also a requirement that sufficient spectator capacity (standing and/or seating) is provided in the Finish Zone to ensure the appropriate atmosphere is created for competitors and broadcast viewers, and therefore consideration should be given to increasing the stated minimum capacities where possible. The capacity in this case is subject to specific agreement with the CGF based on each site.

COMMONWEALTH GAMES MANU AL – OVERLAY & VENUE DEVELOPMENT

Appendix D – Games Overlay The Commonwealth Games Overlay Games Overlay refers to the temporary adaptation of venues and/or facilities to meet the operational requirements of the event. All Commonwealth Games venues will require a level of temporary Overlay to meet these requirements. The extent of Overlay will vary dependent on a range of factors including:

Extent and quality of existing facilities. The scale or size of the venue. Length of the competition programme for the venue. The operational requirements of the individual Functional Areas for each venue.

Games Overlay will consist of temporary construction or elements, many sourced from the local and global hire market, which has the potential to deliver a substantial amount of the Games Overlay with cost and legacy benefits. A careful consideration is required in order to develop the best strategy for the procurement and implementation of Overlay for the Games. The following is a summary of key Overlay elements which will likely be required at most venues.

Front of House (FOH) Facilities Transport terminals Spectator entry points Crowd management systems Spectator amenities (food and beverage, toilets, merchandising, etc.) Spectator seating Spectator circulation areas Secure perimeter fencing

Appendix D – Games Overlay Games Overlay and Venue Operations The relationship between Venue Operations and Games Overlay is crucial. Games Overlay must be carefully integrated within the Venue Operations planning process. The Games Overlay and Venue Operations functions have different and discrete tasks within planning framework, however there is a significant area of ‘overlap’ where these functions work in a coordinated team environment. This will generally occur from the commencement of the Model Venue Exercise through to the completion of the Games Overlay Concept Designs, as defined in the generic timeline. The following diagram defines the relationship between Games Overlay and Venue Operations:

COMMONWEALTH GAMES MANU AL – OVERLAY & VENUE DEVELOPMENT

Appendix D – Games Overlay Games Overlay Programme The Games Overlay programme will include a design, tender and construction process, which must be carefully implemented to achieve on-time delivery and handover of venues. Significant resources will be required in the area of design, project management and construction in order to deliver the Games Overlay across all venues and non-competition facilities. The extent of Games Overlay must be considered when developing briefs and legacy concepts for all permanent venues which are being constructed for the Games. The following is a ‘generic’ timeline outlining the key stages of the Games Overlay. This programme should be considered in accordance with the overall Games Planning timeline due to the close integration of operational planning and Games Overlay design.

The development of venue infrastructure for the Games will require significant integration of activities relating to both, Venue Development for permanent infrastructure and Games Overlay development for temporary infrastructure. The following matrix, known as the Venue Development/Games Overlay activity matrix, identifies the relationship between these different streams of activity, and the key areas of interface which will be necessary. © Commonwealth Games Federation

Appendix D – Games Overlay Venue Access The construction and implementation of the Games Overlay will require specific periods of venue access prior to the Games. This will include ‘nonexclusive’ periods, where the venue may be utilised for other events, and ‘exclusive’ access periods, which will involve the final Games Overlay fitout, when the venue must be handed over to the OC and relevant authorities to ensure implementation of the Overlay. The following timeline identifies generically these periods relative to the period of the Games. It should be noted that the Games Overlay construction period will vary depending on the size and complexity of the specific venue.
