Minister of Sport Charles Griffith has announced that the demolition of the National Stadium will start from April 15 – 16.

The rebuilding of the stadium is tagged at $80 million.

Speaking yesterday at the Waterford St Michael location earlier today, he said a local company has already been contracted to handle the demolition of the facility.

He also said the Chinese construction company, Beijing Construction Engineering Group, is already on-site.

Griffith said Barbadian workers will also be involved in the project.

The minister says he is pleased at the progress, as this is something the entire country is asking for. (SW)
