Rohan West: Tennis Auckland CEO on the timeline for the new ASB Classic covered court
Published 1 month, 3 weeks ago
Description
A timeline of sorts for the new $15 million ASB Classic roof in Auckland.
2027 is the “dream date”, with a more realistic timeline being before the 2028 tournament begins.
Tennis Auckland CEO Rohan West told Mike Hosking the consenting and planning phase takes a while and the construction is logistically challenging.
He says the ASB Classic starts its temporary build in the first week of October, taking about three months to put everything in place.
This means they have to stop construction on a roof, or have it completed, before that, and while completing the project in seven months is possible, West says, it’s probably unlikely.
