The new Tim Hortons Field stadium is facing one last delay — this time of two more weeks.
Ontario Sports Solutions, the consortium building the $145-million stadium, initially estimated the stadium would be substantially complete by Oct. 2. It now estimates a substantial completion date of Oct. 15.
"Substantial completion" means only small, mostly cosmetic changes will remain.
Elevators are delaying the project, said Greg Stack of Kenaidan Contracting Ltd., part of the consortium, at a Pan Am subcommittee meeting at city hall on Tuesday.
One elevator will be working for the Keith Urban concert this weekend, Stack said. "Two, maybe three" will be ready by the next Hamilton Tiger-Cats game.
Right now, people who use wheelchairs must sit on an accessible patio to watch the Ticats play.
John McKendrick is executive vice-president of Infrastructure Ontario, the group that hired Ontario Sports Solutions. He hopes this is the last delay.
The stadium was initially supposed to be completed by June 30. Builders first said in January that it would be two weeks late. Since then, the delay has grown to nearly four months.
The consortium says a harsh winter, a subcontractor going bankrupt and supply problems contributed to the delay. But some say changes to the structural steel designs were also a factor.
