The construction of the South Australian Sports Institute’s (SASI) new advanced facility in Mile End has reached the halfway mark.
The estimated value of this facility is A$90m ($60.90m).
With construction achieving the halfway milestone, SASI is preparing to open the facility in August next year. Work on the building started in March this year.
Australia-based construction company Hansen Yuncken has concluded the in-ground services, piling works, and concrete pours for all three floors.
The remaining works that need to be completed by next year involve installing structural steel, curtain walls, cladding facade, and roofing, as well as interior fit-out finishing and exterior and parking area development.
SA’s Malinauskas Government has contributed A$68m to the Mile End development, which will serve as a sport, research, and education centre for athletes and students.
