Olympic Legacy Company seeks post-Games stadium occupier

The Olympic Park Legacy Company (OPLC) has issued a tender aimed at companies interested in taking over the Olympic Stadium after the 2012 Games.

It said organisations or consortia, interested in managing, operating in, or locating to the stadium after the London 2012 Games will have eight weeks to come forward with their interest and initial views.

This could include sporting, community, education, visitor attraction and commercial uses.

OPLC added that it aimed to reach a settled position by the end of March 2011.

Interested parties are asked to consult OPLC’s Memorandum of Information (MOI) which will have full Stadium detail and data, the vision for the wider Olympic Park and instructions for formulating a response.

The MOI includes possible options for varied capacity and design configurations.

Interested parties can access the MOI via the legacy company website.

Yesterday, West Ham United Football Club and Newham Council issued a statement saying they are in talks about a joint bid to take over the stadium.
