Renovation Of Bento Freitas Stadium Costs $20,000; Temporary Bleachers In Place

During construction of new bleachers at the Bento Freitas stadium, Brasileiro side Grêmio Esportivo "encountered a solution so the stadium" can hold fans during its games: the placement of moveable structures, according to GLOBO ESPORTE. The club "guarantees it follows normal protocol" as per request by the Brazilian Football Federation (CBF) and the local fire department. The stadium "has undergone renovations" since January. The new project, in partnership with Brazilian construction company Porto 5, "oversees the demolition of the structure, cleaning of the land and the installation of the moveable bleachers." With 110m of length, the new structure "will have 3,600 seats." The total cost of construction "will be close" to R$50,000 ($16,400) (GLOBO ESPORTE, 4/15).
