Progress continues at Lansdowne as work on the south stands’ veil continues and attention turns to the project’s finishing details.

Pomerleau’s project director Philippe Goulet said about half the primary members have been erected for the wooden veil and that lower-level connections are being completed.

Goulet said the large upper curved portions will be assembled and braced on the ground and lifted into place. This follows a similar model used for the north stands roof that was assembled on the ground and then lifted into position.

Finishing work below the south stands has started including lighting for the office and team areas.
