Athletics tracks in Ulricehamn
Is it possible to build athletics tracks on the Tingsholm gravel track in Ulricehamn? This feasibility study will answer that!
About the project
Ulricehamns Friidrottsklubb is the small association with big ambitions. They have the goal of building a track and field facility and see that this would lead to a real boost for both the association and the municipality. To find out if this is possible and how it should be done, they have now been granted support for a feasibility study.
The aim of the feasibility study is, among other things, to:
- listen to needs and wishes regarding the project through conversations and surveys with different target groups
- create a clear anchoring with Ulricehamn Municipality and other interested parties
- conduct study visits to other associations that have made similar efforts
- develop a good cost basis for future construction
- Prepare drawings for how the athletics facility can be designed in the best way.
Mikael Levander, project administrator:
”"The background to the project is that we want to ensure that the right conditions exist to build athletics tracks at
Tingsholm's gravel pitch.”
The board's decision justification
