The world festival celebrated by the Olympic and Paralym-pic Games is a living demonstration of the modern OlympicMovement, one that unites mankind in its constant desirefor peace and its joy in promoting fair competition andsportsmanship. The Games inspire human strength, ima-gination and yearning like no other major event.
1. a MOTIVATIONLeipzig is applying to host the Games to reflect the pro-found identification of the people of this region with theOlympic Ideal and because Germany’s citizens stronglysupport this effort.
Looking back on its 850-year history, Leipzig sees itself asa city long moulded by the will of its citizens. It was here in1409 that one of Germany’s oldest universities was foundedand here that one of Europe’s earliest known trade centresflourished, while a spirit of citizen enlightenment evolved.It was here that Johann Sebastian Bach composed most ofhis major works over a 27-year period and also where lite-rary giant Johann Wolfgang von Goethe studied. Leipzig isthe city whose ordinary citizens transformed Germany –and indeed the world – through the “Peaceful Revolution”of 1989, an act of populace engagement that has become aglobal symbol of peace and liberty. The people of Leipzig,backed by all of Germany, now want to dedicate their willand determination to welcoming the Olympic and Paralym-pic Games.
Leipzig is applying to host the Games because it proposesan integrated and viable concept that maintains a sense ofproportion and moderation whilst encompassing the ent-ire urban area and concentrating the competitions in thevery heart of the city.
Leipzig plans to transform itself into one “big Olympic Vil-lage” as a symbol for a free world. The enthusiasm of Leip-zig’s inhabitants will mirror the Olympic Spirit. The sym-biosis of sport, the environment and cultural life – togetherwith the renowned hospitality of our inhabitants and ourhelpful volunteers – stand to create an ideal atmospherefor encouraging peak performances from the athletes andfostering a spirit of fairness and goodwill.
Leipzig is applying to host the Games because its conceptconcentrates on the essentials, placing the athletes, theirsports and their requirements centre stage.
Leipzig’s compact competition venue concept promises aunique ambience for the athletes in particular. 4 competi-tion venue clusters, sited throughout the city centre, willpromote unrestricted movement among the athletes,Olympic Family and hospitality providers of the Host City.Leipzig’s long sporting tradition is a principal driving forcebehind the city’s determination to host the Games. Leipzigand the surrounding region have produced over 500 Olym-pic medal winners. The German Football Association (DFB)was founded here in 1900. The German gymnastics move-ment has its roots in this city. Here, peak performances bythe world’s best athletes will be placed in the context of anall-embracing Olympic Education.
Leipzig is applying to host the Games because it can gua-rantee sustainability and security in a unique way.
Leipzig will stage Games that maintain a sense of propor-tion and thereby ensure sustainability. By developing avai-lable inner-city sites, Leipzig can combine ecologicalobjectives with economic and social development. Shorttravelling distances between venues will ensure a mana-geable security concept in a compact city that is carefullypreparing itself to host the Games.
Leipzig is applying to host the Games because 40 yearsafter the Games in Munich, Germany is once again prepa-red and positioned to serve the Olympic Movement.
The prospect of Olympic and Paralympic Games in the cen-tre of a uniting Europe has won the hearts of a sportsenthusiastic public throughout Germany. LEIPZIG 20I2 iscommitted to staging the Games free from acts of violenceand doping, in concert with the environment and sensitiveto the needs of those with disabilities. Just as it did at the1993 IAAF World Championships in Athletics in Stuttgartand the 2002 European Championships in Athletics inMunich, a fair-minded public will transmit a wave of hospi-tality and international sentiment to the world.
1. b IMPACTSince 1990, Leipzig has built an outstanding record of deve-lopment among the eastern German States. The opportu-nity to host the Games will provide the region with furthermajor impulses to grow in a variety of areas. The visiblelegacy of the Games will be outstanding sports venues,improved transport infrastructure, better environmentalconditions and facilities of the highest standards for peoplewith disabilities.
Besides the revenue and employment impact for the Leip-zig region, the Olympic and Paralympic Games will act asengines of economic growth for the whole of Germany.
However, the true legacy of the Games will be a heightenedlevel of enthusiasm for fair competition and the rebirth ofthe true Olympic Spirit in people’s hearts. Those who expe-rience LEIPZIG 20I2 will be able to tell future generationsabout the peaceful and hospitable Games they witnessed inthis sports-loving and cultural city.
The organisation of the Games in Leipzig will bear the hall-marks of professionalism and moderation, such that theuniversality of the Olympic Idea will be given new impetus,bringing all participants together in an atmosphere of pea-ceful cooperation, joy and friendship, irrespective of race,religion, politics or gender.
LEIPZIG 20I2 will create a shared sense of belonging to one family.

2. a OUR VISIONGames in the Heart of the CityShould the IOC entrust the City of Leipzig with the honourand responsibility of hosting the 2012 Games, the wholecity will be turned into one “big Olympic Village”. Eventoday, sports, culture, business, social life and naturefuse into a single entity in the city centre to create thatsignature Leipzig flair. The Olympic Movement will con-tribute significantly to this urban diversity.
Spotlight on the AthletesThe LEIPZIG 20I2 bid is premised on putting the needs ofthe athletes and their sports first. The Olympic Village,the sports venues and the transport system have beendesigned to create optimum conditions for training andcompetition and to ensure the safety of the athletes.
LEIPZIG 20I2 – one familyThe central stage consisting of the Olympic Village, citycentre, competition venues and media centres in closeproximity to one another will provide the Olympic Move-ment, the media representatives and visitors with a uni-que opportunity to experience the Games as an integra-ted sporting, cultural and social event. No less than 260competitions, or 90 % of the total (excluding sailing), willtake place within a 10 km radius of the Olympic Villageand 264 competitions within a 10 km radius of the citycentre. Some 282 gold medals, or 97 % of the total (exclu-ding sailing) will be awarded within a 15 km radius of theOlympic Village and city centre. All competition venues(except for sailing and equestrian events), as well as the IBC and the MPC, can be reached from the OlympicVillage within 25 minutes, the airport is less than 20minutes away.
The Components of the Compact ConceptThe Olympic Village, 4 competition venue clusters, IBC,MPC, the media villages and the city centre accommoda-tion will be integrated into the urban infrastructure.
The Olympic Village (4 km from the city centre, 2.5 kmfrom the Olympic Park) will be home to the athletes forthe duration of LEIPZIG 20I2. The layout, amenities andsurroundings of the Olympic Village will meet the speci-al needs of the athletes. Its environmentally compatibledesign and integral energy supply will set new standards.The Village forms the site for a permanent, modern resi-dential neighbourhood, with high quality leisure facilitiesin an attractive setting alongside a 13-hectare pool at theLindenau Harbour, presently a derelict area. After theGames, these 2,300 dwelling units adjoining an existinglandscaped park will complement a sector of Leipzig’shousing stock that is experiencing increasing demand.
The Olympic Park (2.5 km from the Olympic Village, 1.5 km from the city centre, 48 % of the medals) will bethe focal point for competitive sports, enabling to expe-rience a broad spectrum of Olympic Sports within a smallradius. This area is already and will remain the nucleusof Leipzig’s sporting activities.
The exhibition halls of the Leipzig Trade Fair (10 km from the Olympic Village, 7 km from the city centre, 6 kmfrom the Olympic Park, 12 % of the medals), newly constructed in 1996 will be used as a ball sports complex.
Leipzig’s Old Exhibition Centre (5 km from the OlympicVillage, 2 km from the city centre, 3.5 km from the Olym-pic Park, 27 % of the medals) will provide facilities for thecombat sports and weightlifting and thereby inject newlife into this inner-city site.
The New Lake District (some 10 km from the Olympic Vil-lage, the city centre and the Olympic Park, 10 % of themedals), situated to the south of Leipzig, is planned asthe venue for field and water sports. The former open-cast mining area has been undergoing recultivation sin-ce 1990, a process due to be completed in 2010. It is alre-ady a very popular sports and recreation area.
The IBC and the MPC (5 km from the Olympic Village,directly in the city centre, 2.5 km from the Olympic Park),together with the adjacent media villages, will be erectedon derelict sites and comply with the technical standardsof the IOC Media Guides. This central location will ensu-re optimal working conditions for media representativesfrom all over the world.
Accommodation for our Olympic Guests will be located inthe heart of Leipzig. The concept foresees facilities in close proximity to the Olympic Sites. This strategy is sus-tainable and marketable, and compatible with the city’surban planning policies.
This tightly-knit Olympic Infrastructure is designed toexploit available inner-city potential by activating broadexpanses of derelict land and vacant living space. Thiswill considerably boost the modernisation process initia-ted in 1990. The Olympic Sites have been planned withtheir post-Olympic use in mind. The compact arrange-ment also serves to optimise transportation solutions foran environmentally sound, cost-effective and structuredexecution of the Games, at the same time making thehighest standards of security possible.
The 2012 Games concept supports Leipzig’s urban plan-ning philosophy which is directed at strengthening andrevitalizing the core of the city. This vision of uniquelycompact Games in the heart of a vibrant city will enableLeipzig to turn its plans into reality.

3. a GENERAL PUBLIC OPINIONOn 12 April 2003 some 65,000 people stood watching agiant screen in Leipzig Market Square, while millions ofothers sat in front of their television sets, anxiously awai-ting the decision of the National Olympic Committee forGermany (NOC) as to which applicant city hopeful wouldcompete on behalf of Germany to host the 2012 Olympicand Paralympic Games. A roar of excitement and tears ofjoy burst forth as Chancellor Gerhard Schröder proclai-med the result, “The winner is Leipzig!”
German interest in this decision has been enormous.People from all the competing German cities joined initi-atives and associations in an effort to bring the Olympicand Paralympic Games to Germany. A fair-play agree-ment among the NOC, all the German contestant citiesand national sports federations, drawn up on the initiati-ve of the President of the Federal Republic of Germany,symbolizes the strong desire of an entire nation: 40 yearsafter the Olympic Games in Munich, once again to welco-me the athletes, the Olympic Family and crowds of visi-tors to the world’s largest and most important sportingevent.
Should Germany apply to host the 2012 Games?Germany’s bid for the 2012 Olympic and ParalympicGames is a matter of strong national concern. A Decem-ber 2003 opinion poll commissioned by the Bid Commit-tee revealed that 88.1 % of the German population is awa-re of the bid to host the 2012 Games. The degree ofawareness in Saxony is 100 %. 89,6 % of the Germanpopulation would welcome Leipzig to be designated asHost City. In Saxony, 95% of the population is in favour ofholding the 2012 Games here.
The poll of nationwide attitudes toward Germany’s bidwas undertaken by the research firm GfK Marktfor-schung GmbH from 18 to 20 December 2003. It covered 1,000 men and women aged 14 and over, a sample repre-sentative of the German population as a whole, and wasconducted by the CATI method (computer-assisted tele-phone interviews).
Support for the LEIPZIG 20I2 bid can also be observed ona national level in the multiple activities of the GermanOlympic Society and 5 Public Interest Groups from theLeipzig region representing more than 10,000 activemembers from all walks of life. Their commitment ascitizens underpins our bid.
3. b OPPOSITIONSince the start of the national competition in 2002, assor-ted public organisations have been involved in preparingthe bid for the Olympic Games. These groups have inclu-ded environmental associations in particular.
There is currently no politically motivated opposition. Nonotable activities by organised Olympic opponents havebeen observed thus far. Only one small local group hasspoken out against the bid.

4. a STATUS OF GOVERNMENT SUPPORTAll parliaments and political parties, the German Bundes-tag, the Parliaments of Saxony and Mecklenburg-WesternPomerania, the City Councils of Leipzig and Rostock, theMunicipality of Moritzburg and the Leipzig District Councilhave given their unreserved support to the bid to host theOlympic and Paralympic Games in 2012.
The application to host the Games and the staging of themhave been identified as key national tasks by the heads ofthe Federal and State Governments in their declarations ofsupport on 26 June and 18 December 2003.
In December 2003 the Federal and State Governmentsresolved that: “The government of the Federal Republic of Ger-many and the governments of the Free State of Saxony and ofthe Land of Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania will make theirfinancial contribution so as to ensure the success of the 2012Olympic and Paralympic Games.

The appended Joint Declaration (P 68/69) expresses thispreparedness.
In the Candidature Phase, the governments will furnishdetailed financial guarantees to meet the IOC’s demands forgovernment contributions pursuant to Question 8. The gua-rantees emphasize that since the start of the eastern Ger-man economic support programme in 1990, a wide range ofinfrastructure measures that will also serve the needs of theGames have already been, and will continue to be, imple-mented in the Leipzig and Rostock regions, independently ofthe staging of the Games.
The Federal Republic of Germany, the Free State of Saxonyand the City of Leipzig have pledged investments equivalentto USD 363 million in sports venues, infrastructure andaccommodation over the period 2003 to 2005 to support the2012 bid. Implementation has already begun with 10 roadconstruction projects, building preparations for a Waterpolocentre and a canoe-kayak slalom course, the refurbishmentof residential property as a Residence Hotel and the acqui-sition of the first construction sites.

On 5 March2003 the Federal Government signed the “CopenhagenDeclaration” for actively combating doping. Furthermore, on18 February 2002 Minister for Foreign Affairs, JoschkaFischer, signed the “Olympic Truce Statement” supported bythe United Nations.
Regional GovernmentSaxony’s Minister-President Prof. Dr Georg Milbradt, haspledged the City of Leipzig the full support of the stategovernment and its authorities at all the stages of the bid,and the preparation, staging and management of the 2012Games.

On 17 Oct-ober 2001 the Council resolved unanimously that Leipzig willbid to host the Games and that all its municipal depart-ments, facilities and associations will devote all theirresources to support the bid. In a unanimous resolutiondated 22 January 2003, the Leipzig City Council furnished aguarantee, contingent upon the financial participation of theFederal Government and the Free State of Saxony, to under-take the financing of the preparation and staging of theGames.
The Hanseatic City of Rostock as the sailing centre with itsMayor Arno Pöker, the Municipality of Moritzburg as thevenue for equestrian events and Leipzig District as venue forfurther disciplines, as well as Dresden, the State Capital ofSaxony, and the neighbouring City of Halle have all pledgedtheir full support for the Leipzig bid.

6. a LEGAL OBSTACLESThere are no legal obstacles to staging the 2012 Games inGermany. The Federal Republic of Germany has alreadysuccessfully hosted the 1972 Olympic Games in Munich andthe 1972 Paralympic Games in Heidelberg.
6. b NEW LAWSNo new laws are required and therefore none are propo-sed. The 11 December 2003 Federal Act for the Protectionof Olympic Emblems and Olympic Terms places the Olym-pic Symbol under special protection from improper use bythird parties.
6. c REFERENDUMA national referendum is not necessary. No provision for areferendum on hosting Olympic and Paralympic Games iscontained in the Constitution, federal legislation or thelaws of the Free State of Saxony and the Land of Mecklen-burg-Western Pomerania.
6. d SPORTS-RELATED LAWSThe 3 state powers – Legislative, Judicial and Executive –have agreed unanimously to leave internal sports affairs toa process of self-regulation and to limit themselves to thecontrol of abuse.
Sporting activity is protected under the rights of personalfreedom and the freedom of assembly guaranteed by theConstitution. The promotion of sports is essentially the res-ponsibility of the Federal States. Both Saxony and Meck-lenburg-Western Pomerania have embodied the promotionof sport in their state constitutions. An additional law forthe financial support of sport came into effect in Mecklen-burg-Western Pomerania in 2002.
6. e DOPING-RELATED LAWSGermany is highly committed, both nationally and interna-tionally, to the fight against doping. It ranks among the topnations internationally in the field of doping analysis andresearch with 7,600 doping controls carried out, 4,100 ofwhich were effectively out-of-competition controls.
The National Anti-Doping Agency (NADA) coordinates thedoping control system in Germany and implements therequirements of the World Anti-Doping Code for Olympicand non-Olympic national sports federations affiliated withthe German Sports Confederation (DSB). NADA, thegovernment and the sports federations work in close col-laboration. The German Medicines Act provides the legalbasis for the punishment of trainers, team officials, doctorsand medical assistants for doping violations.
For the punishment of doping violations within a sport, thelegal basis for sanctions pursuant to the constitutionalautonomy of sport clubs and federations lies first and fore-most in the laws governing national sports federations. Inthis context, the legal framework also includes provisionsunder criminal law, narcotics law, animal protection lawsand the code of criminal procedure.
There are 2 IOC-accredited doping control laboratories inGermany: the Institute for Doping Analysis and Sports Bio-chemistry at Kreischa (Saxony) and the Institute for Bio-chemistry at the German College of Sports in Cologne. TheFederal Government funds doping analysis and anti-dopingresearch extensively. Germany has persisted in the strug-gle against doping in sports for many years now.
6. f WADABoth NOC and the NADA recognise the WADA’s World Anti-Doping Code for German sport. The NOC – in whose by-laws the code is embedded – and the NADA have signed adeclaration of acceptance of the World Anti-Doping Codeon 10 December 2003.
As early as 1 June 1994, the Federal Republic of Germanyratified the Anti-Doping Convention of the European Coun-cil and established its doping-control system according tothose guidelines. It has also been extremely active in thedevelopment of the World Anti-Doping Code. Today Ger-many satisfies all the requirements of the code.
At the World Anti-Doping Conference, held from 3 to 5March 2003 in Copenhagen (the City of Leipzig had alsoapplied to host this conference), Germany signed the“Copenhagen Declaration” and is currently active in prepa-ring the World Anti-Doping Convention agreed upon inCopenhagen.
In the event that the IOC entrusts the City of Leipzig withthe honour of hosting the 2012 Olympic and ParalympicGames, the city guarantees to apply the provisions of theIOC and WADA without restriction.

STRUCTURE OF THE GAMES BUDGETThe 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games are to be finan-ced by a mixture of both public and private funds. Therefo-re, a clear distinction will be made between the expensesof the private Organising Committee (OCOG) and the addi-tional costs to be covered by public authorities and privateinvestors (Non-OCOG).
OCOG BudgetOperational costs, including the costs of temporary buil-dings for the organisation of the Games, are estimated atUSD 2.19 billion and will be borne exclusively by the OCOGand therefore privately. A detailed report prepared by anindependent institution forecasts an operational surplus forthe OCOG Budget.
Revenue included in the OCOG Budget is expected to com-prise the following:
>> approx. 48% from IOC contributions>> approx. 17% from local sponsorship>> approx. 3% from licensing>> approx. 5% from official suppliers>> approx. 18% from ticket sales>> approx. 9% from other sources of revenue
Non-OCOG BudgetThe majority of investments in long-term post-Olympiccompetition venues and transport infrastructure will bepublicly financed. Accommodation – 4,250 new hotel roomsin the Leipzig region and 9,500 rooms in Residence Hotels– will be largely privately financed.
In a resolution dating from 14 October 2003, the FederalRepublic of Germany, the Free State of Saxony and the Cityof Leipzig approved immediate measures amounting toUSD 363 million for the construction of sports venues,infrastructure and accommodation for the period 2003 to2005.
The estimates of operational costs and capital investmentsfor staging the Olympic and Paralympic Games have beenprepared by architects and traffic and city planners, alongwith experts and representatives of the Bid CommitteeLEIPZIG 20I2 and in cooperation with representatives of theNOC for Germany, the governments of the Federal Repu-blic of Germany, the Free State of Saxony, the Land ofMecklenburg-Western Pomerania and the cities of Leipzigand Rostock.
GOVERNMENT CONTRIBUTIONSIn their Declaration of Guarantee in response to Question4b, the Federal and State Governments declare that “Thegovernment of the Federal Republic of Germany and thegovernments of the Free State of Saxony and of the Land ofMecklenburg-Western Pomerania will make their financialcontribution so as to ensure the success of the 2012 Olympicand Paralympic Games. All necessary resources will be madeavailable to achieve this goal.”
All necessary financial guarantees will be submitted to theIOC in the details as required in the Candidate phase.
Government-related Services at no CostPublic authorities will carry the financial burden for alladditional expenses – those related to medical care, secu-rity, transport, the environmental concept and so on - whichgo beyond the expenses to be covered by the OCOG budget.In light of the scale of the Olympic and Paralympic Gamesand the world-wide security situation, the Bid CommitteeLEIPZIG 20I2 and the political decision-makers of theabove-named authorities are well aware that the scope ofnecessary measures will be considerable. Existing infras-tructure in the Federal Republic of Germany for internal andexternal security, health care and regional and long-distan-ce public transport is already well developed. All additionalexpenses will be covered by public authorities.
Availability of Public Sports and Non-Sports VenuesAll publicly-owned facilities will be made available to theOCOG at no cost.
Coverage of OCOG ShortfallOperational costs will be fully covered by IOC contributionsfrom TV revenue and the TOP Programme as well as localsponsorship and ticket sales. The marketing and ticketsales proceeds have been budgeted on the basis of Ger-many’s population density and income levels. Any deficitnevertheless accruing to the OCOG will be underwritten bypublic authorities, thereby guaranteeing all of the OCOG’sfinancing requirements up to and including the year 2012.
Coverage of Non-OCOG BudgetExisting sports and transport infrastructure already satis-fies exacting standards. However, additional buildings andinfrastructure will be required. Depending on their propo-sed long-term post-Olympic use by the general public, theywill generally be funded by public authorities.

LEIPZIG 20I2 is aware that despite intensive market studiesand consultations with experts, the amount of revenuegenerated by the OCOG will be subject to a wide range ofunforeseeable influences. In particular, these influencesinclude the state of the economy and advertising marketsup to 2012 and the programme of the Games in force at that time. With due regard to these difficulties and risks,LEIPZIG 20I2 has estimated potential revenues on a con-servative basis.
Local Sponsorship, Licensing, Official SuppliersRevenue from local sponsorship, licensing and official sup-pliers will be extremely important. The figures providedhere are based on the national sponsorship programmesat recent large-scale sports events and the general sportssponsorship market in Germany. In addition, Olympic Rulesand Regulations have been closely inspected to ensure thatthese estimates are based exclusively on a marketing programme that does not conflict with the interests of theIOC, in particular the TOP Programme. The unique attrac-tiveness of Olympic Sports and the valuable opportunity to make contributions-in-kind – and thereby to crediblydemonstrate competence in a particular field – provides anincentive to local sponsors, franchisees and suppliers toinvest heavily in the 2012 Games.
Ticket SalesIn estimating revenues from ticket sales, the principles offairness and equity were adhered to. The bases for thesecalculations are the calendar of events, capacities of thesports facilities and differentiated pricing according to thelevel of estimated demand (on average 75 %) and appeal.Average ticket prices for events range from USD 24 to USD95. There will be special prices for the Opening and ClosingCeremonies, and certain events will be free of charge.
Paralympic GamesA high level of interest in the Paralympic Movement alrea-dy exists in Germany, which headquarters the InternationalParalympic Committee (IPC), and interest will increaseeven more on an international scale. Leipzig will welcomethe 2012 Paralympic Games with great enthusiasm. In accordance with the IOC letter of 6 November 2003, bud-geted revenues have been based on the IPC’s revenue esti-mates.
Other Sources of RevenueOther sources of revenue for the OCOG are, in contrast, of only minor significance or are assumed to be zero. We donot propose public subsidies to boost the OCOG budget.Potential proceeds from an Olympic coin programme, philately and lotteries have not been included in the OCOGbudget for regulatory and legal reasons. Operational mea-sures for the hosting of the Olympic Games are thus to bestrictly privately financed.

GENERAL SPORTS VENUE CONCEPTThe sports venue concept for LEIPZIG 20I2 rests on 4 pillars:
Concentration – Games within short distances in a 10 kmradius of the Olympic Village and Leipzig’s city centre
Quality – Superior quality of the sports facilities fully meetthe IF Requirements provided by the IOC
Sustainability – The sports venue concept pays particularattention to post-Olympic use of competition venues
Clustering – Logical location and discipline-related cluste-ring of the competition venues (see question 11)
ConcentrationThe requirements of the athletes and team officials are themost important criteria on which the sports venue conceptfor LEIPZIG 20I2 is based, with strong concentration on theOlympic Village, the competition venues and the 2 mediacentres. A characteristic feature of LEIPZIG 20I2 will be theproximity of the Olympic Village, almost all OlympicVenues, the media centres and the media villages to Leip-zig city centre, making the city centre the focal point of theGames. Of 260 competitions, 90 % of the total (excludingsailing) will be held within a 10 km radius of the OlympicVillage and 264 competitions (excluding sailing) will be heldwithin a 10 km radius of the city centre. No less than 282competitions, or 97 % of the total (excluding sailing) will beheld within a 15 km radius of the Olympic Village and thecity centre. The compact concept and a dense urban roadnetwork will result in short distances and travel times. Theshort distances will also have a beneficial effect on thespecial transportation requirements of the ParalympicGames.
The Olympic Equestrian Centre is to be constructed at thetraditional Saxon state stud farm at Dresden-Moritzburg,which already has equestrian facilities. The sailing compe-titions will take place at Rostock-Warnemünde, one of theworld’s best sailing centres, with experience in runningnumerous major events.
Not only are sports facilities very centrally located, spon-sors will also be able to present themselves at prominentvantage points. Some of Leipzig’s old inner-city Trade Fairbuildings will house the Main Hospitality Centre directly inthe city centre. Further hospitality centres will be set up atother competition venue clusters in Leipzig, at the marinain Rostock and at the Equestrian Centre at Dresden-Moritzburg. For this purpose existing buildings will be usedthat will be returned to their original use following LEIPZIG20I2.
QualityAll sports facilities will meet or exceed IF Requirementsprovided by the IOC and will offer the finest internationalstandards for the athletes. The sports venues will be desi-gned to satisfy all requirements for competition, trainingand athlete security.
SustainabilityThe sports venue concept contained in the LEIPZIG 20I2 bidreflects a commitment to the principles of sustainabilityand thus conforms to the long-term urban developmentstrategy of the city as well as Olympic Movement's AGEN-DA 21. It is designed to ensure the long-term developmentof all Olympic and Paralympic disciplines for mass and pro-fessional sports. All sports venue clusters are proposed onurban sites that have already been developed or are usedfor sporting purposes, so that in spite of the exacting requi-rements, the impact on land surfaces will be neutral. TheLEIPZIG 20I2 concept pays particular attention to post-Olympic use of competition venues.
9 competition venues will remain unchanged in the Olympic configuration.
8 competition halls will be returned to normal use after2012 for trade fairs and events.
13 competition venues will be permanently retained, although their post-Olympic capacities may be reducedto a cost-effective level.
3 competition venues will be designed on a modular principle, so that they may be dismantled after 2012 inLeipzig and reerected as sports centres elsewhere in the region (Velodrome, Wrestling Hall, Judo/Taekwondo Hall). This will enable the entire region to benefit from the Olympic Legacy.
6 competition venues will be reduced in size after the Olympic and Paralympic Games, but by retaining infrastructure, there can be international competitions(e.g., triathlon, archery) at these locations after 2012.
4 competition venues will be dismantled after 2012 because they are incompatible with long-term development plans for these locations (e.g., baseball and softball). However, following LEIPZIG 20I2, at leastone training facility will be available for each of the Olympic Disciplines.
Overall, 51% of the competition venues already exist, construction of a further 21 % are already planned and only28 % are additional facilities.
We have examined the feasibility of the competition venueconcept described above, i.e., competition venues still to beconstructed or extended, with reference to current plan-ning legislation, including the preparation of the develop-ment plan (Olympic Park). Outline planning permission hasalready been granted for most of the proposed competitionvenues.

The competition venue concept proposes 4 venue clusters:
The Olympic Park at the Elster Basin, a sports complex andlandscaped park adjoining the city’s alluvial forest, willform the sporting hub of the Games. A wide spectrum ofOlympic Disciplines is envisioned here: stadium events(athletics, football), water-related sports (rowing, aqua-tics), indoor sports (table tennis), equestrian sport (modernpentathlon), cycling (track) and technical disciplines (shoot-ing/archery). The Olympic Park will be the culmination of along history of urban development.
The Shooting Centre (Schützenhof) has been in existencesince 1920 and the Elster Basin to the north of the PalmGarden was completed in 1922. After the Festival Groundswere first laid out in the 1930s, a swimming stadium, a hockey pitch, the old Central Stadium and several othersports grounds were added on adjacent plots after 1950. Anew Central Stadium (seating 45,000) and the new ArenaLeipzig (indoor seating 7,000) have afforded Leipzig state-of-the-art competition venues since 2002. North of theCentral Stadium a multi-purpose sports arena is schedu-led to open in 2004 as an “Olympic Training Centre” (9,035m2) to be used for water polo during the 2012 Games. TheOlympic Stadium (capacity for the Games: 82,000 – to besubsequently reduced to seat approximately 15,000) andthe Velodrome (6,500 spectators) will be built on an expan-ded area in the western part of the Olympic Park. The newSwimming Stadium suspended above the Elster Basin(capacity for the Games: 15,000 – subsequent seating forapprox. 3,000) will create an impressive architectural focalpoint. The rowing course (10,000 spectators on a grand-stand at the finishing line) will be located in the middle ofthe Olympic Park on the Elster Basin. All the land neededfor these developments is publicly owned.
The Leipzig Trade Fair, one of Europe’s most modern exhi-bition sites (opened in 1996) and owned by the Free State ofSaxony and the City of Leipzig, has excellent transportationinfrastructure in the form of 2 motorway intersections,suburban and long-distance rail and light rail connections.The 5 existing halls, each with 24,000 m2 of floor space, theneighbouring open space 300 m to the west and the plan-ned 2-hall expansion (independent of LEIPZIG 20I2) willform the Olympic Ball Sports Centre, featuring basketball,handball, volleyball, baseball and softball. Additionally, thegymnastics and fencing competitions will be held here.
The Old Exhibition Centre, a city-owned space of over 50 hectares, will become a combat and weightlifting sportscentre. An existing exhibition hall and a wholesale markethall (Großmarkthalle, 18,100 m2), characterised by 2 uni-que cupolas and dating back to 1928/29, will both be usedas sports venues, as will a proposed new multipurposearena (16,675 m2). 2 additional temporary halls (each18,000 m2) are planned. The Old Exhibition Centre will hou-se the judo, taekwondo, wrestling, boxing, weightlifting andbadminton competitions. The road cycling, hockey andbeach volleyball events will be held 300 m away at the footof the imposing monument to the Battle of the Nations(Völkerschlachtdenkmal). The baseball competitions willtake place 1 km away (small baseball stadium).
The New Lake District to the south of Leipzig, a 430 km2
recultivated area predominantly state-owned by the Lau-sitzer und Mitteldeutschen Bergbau-Verwaltungs GmbH(LMBV), is currently being turned into a regional recreationand tourist resort. The sports disciplines requiring ruralsurroundings - mountain bike, canoe-kayak flatwater,canoe-kayak slalom (construction starts 2004), triathlon,shotgun – are to be integrated into the varied landscape oflakes, hills and green spaces. The Olympic Tennis Centre,situated between the urban area and the open countryside,will form a “gateway” to the urban competition venue clus-ters.

OLYMPIC VILLAGE(S)a ConceptThe Olympic Village at Lindenau Harbour, only 4 km fromthe city centre and 2.5 km from the Olympic Park, will bethe hub of the Games. It will be home to athletes and teamofficials with ideal conditions for preparing for competi-tions, rest and relaxation. A modern residential neighbour-hood with 2 to 4-storey buildings, urban flair and an abun-dance of high-quality open space will be constructed on atotal of 124 hectares and made available for first-time useby the athletes in 2012.
The LEIPZIG 20I2 masterplan proposes 5 residential neigh-bourhoods grouped around the 13-hectare pool at Linde-nau Harbour with a total floor space of 230,000 m2, thusproviding each of the 16,000 athletes and team officialswith 14-16 m2 of living space in 2 to 6-room dwellings. Theplan conforms to IOC Olympic Village Guidelines. Subse-quent use as a Paralympic Village is an integral part of theconcept. All public utilities will be provided, along with lei-sure facilities and relaxation areas totalling 70 hectares. AnIn-Village Transport System operated by electrically powe-red buses will be available to residents 24 hours a day.Maintaining a distance of at least 100 m from neighbouringbuildings as well as landscaping measures will ensurehigh standards of security. Developed as a Zero EmissionOlympic Village, it will be a core component of the “Inte-grated Environmental Concept LEIPZIG 20I2”.
95 % of the Olympic Village can be constructed on anindustrial wasteland site, of which 80 % is owned by publicauthorities. The additional private land will be acquiredwithin the scope of an urban planning scheme already rati-fied by the City Council that designates the site as a newresidential area, independent of the Games being held inLeipzig. The Olympic Village development will close a gapin Leipzig’s real estate market with high-quality, modernhomes. A total marketing period of four years has beenproposed for the 2,300 apartments and houses. A further700 rooms can be created for the Games to accommodate”As”-accredited officials. Training facilities will be availablein the immediate vicinity.
b FinancingThe development and realisation of the Olympic Village willbe entrusted to the Leipzig Housing Association (LWB), a company that manages an existing housing stock ofapproximately 60,000 dwellings. On 18 December 2003LWB’s Supervisory Board approved a resolution to build theOlympic Village and to market the single-family homes,and flats, involving a total investment volume of some USD536 million.
c Alternative AccommodationIn Rostock a residential area located approximately 300 mfrom the marina will accommodate 950 athletes and teamofficials as an Olympic Sailing Village. It will be made avai-lable for first-time use by the athletes in 2012.
The lease contracts for the neighbourhood, consisting ofseveral building complexes with 2 to 5-room apartments,are under negotiation. Any additional required facilities willbe erected temporarily.
The Steigenberger Hotel in Dresden-Moritzburg, situated 7 km from the competition venue, will serve as the OlympicRiding Village for 200 athletes and team officials. Accom-modation for grooms and veterinarian facilities are availa-ble close to the competition venue.
The Rostock and Dresden sub-villages will offer athletesthe same standards as the Olympic Village. Naturally, the-re will be space for each and every athlete in the OlympicVillage.
IBC/MPCa ConceptThe IBC and the MPC will be sited in the city centre, predo-minantly in existing or already planned buildings located nomore than 1.5 km apart from one another.
The IBC will be constructed 150 m to the east of Leipzig’sCentral Railway Station on a mainly disused railway site. ADIY store and additional buildings to be erected regardlessof the LEIPZIG 20I2 will afford approximately 75,000 m2 offloor space in predominantly single-storey structures to beavailable a year before the start of the Games. The IBC willbe located in immediate proximity to the Broadcast Village.30,000 m2 of the IBC will be used by the DIY store afterLEIPZIG 20I2 and a further 14,000 m2 as office space. Thetemporary section of the IBC will later be used as a high-quality, inner-city commercial and retail site. The 11-hec-tare site is owned by Deutsche Bahn AG, which has signeda notarised agreement to make it available from mid-2011onwards.
The MPC and the Press Village are to be housed on a citycentre site. The building, which is required independentlyof the Games, will provide approximately 40,000 m2 of floorspace for the most part in large open-plan areas. After theGames, the building will be used as Leipzig’s Technical CityHall. The city plans to conclude a 20-year lease agreementwith a private investor for this purpose. It will be modifiedfor LEIPZIG 20I2 use to satisfy the requirements of theMPC.
b FinancingThe part of the IBC to be later used as a DIY store will beconstructed by a private investor and made available to theOCOG. The appropriate agreements have already been pre-pared. In addition to the privately financed office buildings,further temporary floor space will be constructed andfinanced from the OCOG budget. The Technical City Hallwill be completed in 2011 and initially used as the MPC. Itwill be financed by a private investor who has already beencontracted to do so.

13. a/b HOTEL ROOMSThe accommodation concept is a central pillar of the com-pact Games idea underlying the LEIPZIG 20I2 bid. It callsfor guest accommodation in close proximity to OlympicSites. Its orientation towards post-Olympic use and marketstrategies conforms to the fundamental urban planninggoals of the concerned cities. For the purpose of fulfillingIOC requirements, the accommodation concept comprises3 components: “Hotels", "Residence Hotels" and “MediaVillage”. We have used the stringent German hotel classi-fication requirements as a yardstick for quality. The con-cept focuses on using existing facilities across the entirespectrum of accommodation types in order to avoid crea-ting excess capacity and constructing new hotels in excessof market demand. As shown on Chart II, approximately65,000 rooms of hotel standard will be available in 2012compared with the 44,250 documented rooms availabletoday.
In addition, by 2012 over 150,000 rooms will be accessibleby train within an hour or less travel time. This catchmentarea includes amongst others the cities of Berlin, Weimar,Erfurt, Chemnitz and Jena.
HotelsThe Leipzig metro-area (50 km radius) and the other majorOlympic sports clusters already offer around 44,250 roomsin various hotel categories, of which some 10 % are in high-standard non-hotel establishments. About 2,700 rooms willbe available in Leipzig’s “Main Hotel Area” in the heart ofthe city in 2012. Leipzig’s hotels will place their bed capa-city at the disposal of the OCOG by way of contractualagreements. The respective declarations of intent havebeen prepared and by summer 2004 will become bindingcontracts specifying numbers and rates.
Residence HotelsLeipzig has the largest turn-of-the-century housing stockin Germany, a distinguishing feature of the cityscape.Around 75 % of these buildings have been extensivelyimproved and refurbished since 1990. The remaining stockis scheduled for refurbishment within the coming 8 years.
A portion of these buildings will be refurbished by the localhousing associations to provide some 7,500 rooms in Resi-dence Hotels in the 3, 4 and 5 star categories ( “Comfort”,“Premium” and “Luxury”) located within a 7 km radius ofthe Olympic Village. This will be a unique component of ourbid. These rooms are to be available in 6 high-density clus-ters (e.g., “City Residences“ and “City Park Towers”). Anadditional 2,000 rooms will be available in the City of Halle.The 48 Residence Hotels will provide accommodation inattractive building complexes, including spacious watersi-de lofts, turn-of-the-century villas, stuccoed apartments inpalatial buildings and in city apartments.
Agreements have been drawn up under which the Resi-dence Hotels will be operated by the hotel industry for theperiod of the Games. This has been possible because theResidence Hotels have been carefully selected in respect oftheir location and later marketability as residential andcommercial units.
The post-Olympic use of Residence Hotels and their selec-tion – for residential purposes, to facilitate the start-up ofnew companies or to create small office units – will dependon the strategic objectives of the cities concerned. Not onlywill the combination of urban renewal and the potentialpositive added effects of the Games ensure a unique selec-tion of accommodation, it will also give an enormous boostto urban development. The catalytic effect of ResidenceHotels can become a major element in the Olympic Legacy.
A 190-room “Premium Guesthouse” situated between thecity centre and the Olympic Park is due to be constructedas a pilot project in 2004-05.
Further PotentialAdditionally, a wide range of supplementary accommo-dation will be available for visitors and volunteers. Thisincludes capacities not listed here in detail, as well as thesignificant housing stock owned by Leipzig housing associ-ations. From 2010 onwards, the latter will be able to placehalf their vacancies or about 25,000 rooms at the disposalof the OCOG under the supervision of an existing companywith a housing stock of over 110,000 dwellings.

For LEIPZIG 20I2, a total of 10,000 hotel rooms in variouscategories will be available for the accommodation ofmedia representatives. In addition 7,000 rooms will beavailable in 2 temporary media villages.
14. a MEDIA VILLAGESJust as the Olympic Village gives athletes a special oppor-tunity to interact with one another, the accommodation forthe media representatives will be located in close proximityto the IBC and MPC. The 2 media villages will be 1.5 kmapart and within a 1 to 5 minute walk from the IBC andMPC. From there, media representatives will be connectedby shuttle bus directly to the sport venues, the non-sportvenues and the airport.
Adequate additional space is available for any furtherrequirements for media villages at the competition venueclusters around the Leipzig Trade Fair and Old ExhibitionCentre.
In order to further qualify the bids already submitted, aninternational design competition will be held in 2004amongst well-known manufacturers, architects and inter-disciplinary university teams. We believe the competitiveprocess will produce innovative concepts that reflectmodern construction and ecological standards, employregenerative energy sources, feature the standards ofamenities for a 3-star hotel and incorporate state-of-the-art telecommunications technology. The standardisedaccommodation modules will provide each media repre-sentative with an average of 13.5 m2 of living space, pluscommon areas. Efficient catering operations will provideround-the-clock room service.
The media villages, designed from the outset as tempora-ry buildings, will be marketed by their owners as modulesand can be used for “Olympic Solidarity” and for develop-ment aid.
Broadcast VillageThe Broadcast Village, to house about 5,000 media repre-sentatives in an attractive and affordable setting, will utili-se a mobile construction system on a site of 16.7 hectaresdirectly adjacent to the IBC and the Central Railway Station,the city’s most vital public transportation node. The site iscurrently in industrial use and to a large extent lies dere-lict. Planners will redevelop the site in consultation withthe property owners and in compliance with the city’s stra-tegic urban planning goals. Deutsche Bahn AG, which ownsalmost all this property, will make the sites available on acontractual basis from 2011 until after the Games. HartmutMehdorn, Chairman of the Board, signed a guarantee tothis effect on 10 December 2003.
The construction of the Broadcast Village as a temporaryaccommodation site will promote and expedite the res-tructuring process. Access and utilities will be designed toenable long-term post-Olympic use of the site. About 40 %of the temporarily developed site is proposed as a neigh-bourhood park. Trees are already being planted and a net-work of pathways laid out in preparation for this long-termuse. 60 % of the area is to be developed as a commercialand retail site. The Olympic and Paralympic Games willhave provided the impulse for transforming the site into alively neighbourhood with workplaces and open spaces.Bearing this post-Olympic use in mind, the design willincorporate distinct spatial entities, 2-to-3-storey modulesof different shapes and sizes with an attractive overallappearance.
500 m from the IBC a Residence Hotel containing a further500 rooms will provide a 4-star standard of accommodationfor media representatives.
Press VillageThe Press Village will be located on the same site as theMPC, offering a total of 2,000 rooms for journalists andphotographers on the 4.2-hectare now derelict site andusing the same construction principles applied to the Bro-adcast Village. The site is owned by the City of Leipzig.
Media Villages at Rostock/Dresden-MoritzburgAccommodation for media representatives at the sailingcompetition venue in Rostock will be provided in existinghotels close to the marina. Media representatives workingat Dresden-Moritzburg will be accommodated in the exis-ting hotels at that location.
14. b FINANCINGThe proposed mobile construction systems can be eitherleased or sold in advance to a subsequent user. Potentialpost-Olympic uses include providing infrastructure withinGermany, for overseas missions of the Technical ReliefOrganisation (THW), for the use of German foreign aidorganisations or as sports facilities. The OCOG budget willcover the costs arising from temporary use. We anticipatethat rental income will cover USD 50.2 million of the esti-mated USD 105 million in costs. After the Olympic andParalympic Games, the media villages can be dismantledinto modules and transported to the sites of their next use.Access roads and utilities will remain in place for post-Olympic use and have been provided for in the non-OCOGbudget.

The transport system for LEIPZIG 20I2 consisting of exis-ting and planned infrastructure will satisfy the require-ments.
Road NetworkLeipzig has excellent links to the European motorway net-work via the 6-lane A 9 and A 14 motorways (official fore-cast of reserve capacity for 2015 of 32,000-67,000 vehiclesper day). To the south, the 4-lane A 38 motorway – current-ly under construction and with an official forecast of reser-ve capacity for 2015 of 28,000-43,000 vehicles per day – willcomplete the Autobahn Ring around Leipzig. An efficienttransportation system for regional traffic is thus already inplace with direct links to other major German cities suchas Berlin, Hamburg and Munich as well as neighbouringEuropean cities. In 2008 the A 72 (Leipzig-Chemnitz with anofficial forecast of reserve capacity in 2012 of 7,500-29,500vehicles per day) will have been completed, further impro-ving accessibility. An inner-city primary road network, con-sisting of 2 additional ring roads and high-capacity arterialroads, will supplement the motorway network. The arteri-al roads will connect the Olympic Park to the 15 motorwayaccess points leading to the Autobahn Ring only 10-15 kmaway. The primary road network is already 90 % complete,and further extensions are currently on the drawing board.The multiple-ring road system will make it possible to ope-rate a flexible traffic management system. Capacity reser-ves will permit 84 km of the network to be designated as“Olympic Roads” and closed to general traffic in 2012.
Long-Distance RailLeipzig is a major railway node in the high-speed networkof German Railways. All large German population centresare quickly and directly accessible by high-speed train(ICE/IC). The high-speed sections Leipzig-Berlin, Berlin-Rostock and Leipzig-Dresden will provide additional con-venience for connections to other major economic regions.High-speed trains stop directly at Leipzig/Halle Airport andthe competition venue cluster at the Leipzig Trade Fair.Some 160 long-distance trains operate daily to and fromLeipzig’s Central Station, the largest railway terminus inEurope. The existing infrastructure is capable of handling300,000 passengers per day compared to current traffic ofaround 100,000.
S-Bahn (Suburban Railway)The existing rail network provides extensive urban/subur-ban services along 8 lines extending in a radius from Leip-zig into the surrounding region. A new S-Bahn line betweenHalle and Leipzig is due to be opened in 2004, further pro-moting the fusion of the Leipzig metro-area with 1.9 millioninhabitants. Completion of the 4 km City Tunnel under thecity centre in 2009 will give rise to a substantial increase inflexibility and capacity of inner city transportation. The S-Bahn system will also benefit from the S-Bahn tunnel“City West”, running in an east-west direction (capacity ineach direction: 30,000 persons per hour), for which plan-ning has already begun and which will provide 2 stations forthe Olympic Park.
An additional S-Bahn link can be created by a line runningnorth of the Olympic Park (capacity in each direction:15,000 persons per hour) so that the Olympic Park wouldbe accessible via 2 independent S-Bahn lines. The compe-tition venue clusters at the Leipzig Trade Fair and the OldExhibition Centre and the large Park & Ride lots will alsobe accessible by S-Bahn.
In Rostock there is an efficient suburban railway connectionbetween the city centre and the marina at Warnemünde.
Light Rail LinesLeipzig has a dense light rail network with a total length ofapproximately 150 km. Platforms with step free access andlow floor vehicles render convenient passenger travel, par-ticularly for those with disabilities. Further improvementsin the quality of the light rail system will be implemented inthe coming years, such as the introduction of additionalmodern vehicles and the expansion of public transportprioritization at all junctions. The Olympic Village, the com-petition venue clusters at Olympic Park (capacity in eachdirection: 12,000 persons per hour), Leipzig Trade Fair, OldExhibition Centre and the 2 media centres and villages areaccessible by light rail. The light rail infrastructure is capa-ble of carrying double the current number of passengers.
Cyclists and PedestriansLeipzig, traditionally a bicycle-friendly city, has a well-developed cycle path network. Cyclists will benefit from themoderate gradients and short distances connecting Olym-pic Sites. An Olympic bicycle rental system and bicycle par-king at the competition clusters are envisioned to makethis form of transport appealing. Short distances forpedestrians to all the central Olympic Sites will also serveas enticement to experience the Games on foot.
Traffic ManagementThe first stage of Leipzig’s dynamic traffic managementsystem, a parking guidance system, was completed in2002. By 2006 this system will be supplemented by a traf-fic management and information system that directs moto-rists to their city centre destinations from the AutobahnRing. The traffic signal control system is to be furtherupdated to increase the speed and efficiency of publictransport.
A special transportation operations centre will be establis-hed for LEIPZIG 20I2. This centre will control all transportactivities, including risk management.
Ferry ServicesThere are regular ferry services from the Rostock Overse-as Harbour to afford visitors, particularly those from theScandinavian and Baltic countries, fast access.

16. a MAIN INTERNATIONAL AIRPORTThe Leipzig/Halle Intercontinental Airport, newly construc-ted in 1996 and located 12 km northwest of the proposedOlympic Village at the intersection of important east-westand north-south motorways, will be the gateway entrancegate to LEIPZIG 20I2. A double runway system with unlimi-ted 24-hour operations and no slot shortage or runway-related restrictions make for optimal flight operations.Leipzig/Halle has connections to the world’s airports, either directly or through the hubs in Frankfurt/Main andMunich. The airport is thus ideally equipped to handle flightoperations safely and efficiently during the Games. Leipzig/Halle is also a major nodal point in the EuropeanUnion’s trans-European air network. The inter-linkage ofair, rail and road transport makes the airport a multiportfor passenger and freight traffic. The freight centre hasbeen granted approval for expansion in order to handle avolume of 130,000 tonnes per year. The central terminaland the gate area, completed in 2003, conform to EU airsafety standards and additional national security require-ments. A state-of-the-art, multi-stage baggage controlsystem meticulously scans all checked-in luggage. Moderncheck-in facilities, comfortable waiting areas and a widerange of communication facilities are representative of the high facility-equipment standards. The airport has its own General Aviation Terminal for private aircraft and heli-copters.
16. b OTHER AIRPORTSThe Rostock-Laage Airport is available for visitors to theRostock-Warnemünde sailing centre. For the duration ofthe 2012 Games, shuttle connections will fly passengersbetween Leipzig and Rostock-Laage several times a day.
Dresden Airport is another international airport availablefor fast access to the equestrian events at Moritzburg andthe cultural City of Dresden. It is a modern complex withextremely good inter-modal connections and sufficientcapacity reserves. Located 8.5 km from the city centre and7.5 km from the equestrian venue, it has also been appro-ved for 24-hour flight operations. Responsive arrange-ments for equestrian transport will present no problem inDresden.
Both airports satisfy the highest security standards.
16. c CAPACITIESLeipzig/Halle Airport has 2 runways, one of which is 3,600metres long and unrestrictedly capable of accommodatingintercontinental jets. Extension of the second runway to thesame standard is intended. 6 passenger gates and 22 apronparking spaces for aircraft are already in operation. Thereare no obstacles to further extension, since adequatereserve space is available. The new passenger terminalcan handle up to 4.5 million passengers per year, on peakdays up to 36,000.
The airport’s modular construction makes it possible tobring on additional capacity at short notice. With the ope-ning of the new airport railway station in 2003, the airportis directly connected to the German Railway’s national andlocal networks. Motorways A 9 (Munich–Berlin) and A 14(Dresden-Magdeburg) provide optimum road connectionsto the airport. 2 motorway access points and efficient roadconnections enable travellers from all parts of Germanyand neighbouring European countries to reach Leipzig withspeed and ease. Regular suburban railway trains connectthe airport to Leipzig’s Central Station, providing fastaccess to the city centre (14 min.). In addition, bus serviceswill be laid on to and from all Olympic sites to dovetail withthe flight schedule.
Rostock-Laage Airport with a 2,500 m runway is locatedapprox. 30 km from the city centre. Proposed extensionsinclude the construction of 4 new passenger gates with anannual capacity of 300,000 persons. The existing 2 passen-ger gates can handle approx. 140,000 persons. Bus andshuttle connections reach the marina at Warnemünde in 35minutes.
The multifunctional terminal at Dresden Airport, comple-ted in 2001, can handle 3.5 million passengers per year or32,000 passengers on a peak day. 6 passenger gates and 26apron parking spaces ensure reliable flight operations. Therunway is due to be extended by 2006-07, enabling it toaccommodate intercontinental jets. The airport is located 9 km from the baroque centre of Dresden and can be rea-ched conveniently in 20 minutes via an integrated airportrailway station. In addition, a motorway enables fast con-nections to all parts of Germany.
The frequency of all public transport services to and from the airports will be increased to meet demands forLEIPZIG 20I2. An Olympic flight timetable offering additio-nal non-stop and hub connections will be drawn up toreflect demand.

National Transport Infrastructure PlanningThe German rail and road network performs a major tran-sit role in central Europe and is therefore geared to themobility requirements of a densely populated country. Theconstruction and extension of federal roads and the coun-try’s railway network are set forth in the Federal TransportInfrastructure Plan and the Federal Road and Rail Impro-vement Act. These form the basis for ongoing expansionand improvement of the networks.
The new Federal Transport Infrastructure Plan 2003 is amasterplan for investment that also takes into account allmajor environmental concerns. It calls for total investmentof USD 204.38 billion up to 2015. In its first stage, the indi-vidual elements of the plan are incorporated into structu-ral development legislation. The necessary legal stepshave already been taken. Specific implementation measu-res are then defined in formal planning stages (line deter-mination, planning approval process). The Federal Govern-ment’s annual budget law regulates the financing of suchprojects.
Regional Transport Infrastructure PlanningThe Free State of Saxony has formally adopted the Trans-port Development Plan (FEV). Its transport and traffic poli-cies have thus acquired legal status. The plan guaranteesthat important routes and locations are reserved for trans-port infrastructure. In addition, it provides the requiredbacking for all levels of planning.
Preparations for the 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Gameswere included as new objectives in the revised State Deve-lopment Plan of Saxony published in 2003. One example isthe construction of new S-Bahn lines in Leipzig that willconnect the Olympic Park to the Central Railway Station.
In 1998 a Local Transport Plan for Saxony, containing pro-jections and specification guidelines for public transport,was approved under Saxony’s Public Transport Act. Thisplan is currently undergoing review.
Outline approval for specific transport measures is secu-red under the Planning Code. The preparation of plans andthe subsequent approvals are accompanied by broad publicdiscussion. This procedure ensures that all interestedcitizens and specialists have the opportunity to participate.Outline approval normally takes approximately one year;approval for current priority projects such as the A 38motorway extension was obtained more quickly, in thiscase within 10 months.
Local Transport Infrastructure PlanningIn 1992 the City of Leipzig approved the Transport Guideli-nes on which municipal transport planning decisions andmeasures have been based ever since. The guidelinesestablish Leipzig’s triple ring-road system (Autobahn Ring,Middle and Inner Ring) as fixed elements. The city is pur-suing extensions to the light rail system and constructionof the City Tunnel according to the guidelines which wereadopted in the 1995 Land Utilization Plan and now form thelegal foundation for further planning and investment.
At all planning levels consideration is given to ecologicalissues based on federal and state legislation as well asEuropean directives.
Traffic volumes have increased in the years since Germanreunification. At the same time, officials have identifiedshortcomings in the condition and quality of the transpor-tation infrastructure. Since 1990, the City of Leipzig hasresponded effectively to transport infrastructure challen-ges, implementing key projects and employing flexible,efficient administrative and working structures in tandemwith the ministries in charge in order to shorten planningand construction periods.

Current Challenges and AnswersWe anticipate further growth in traffic volumes in the futu-re. Thus, the current challenge is to respond in an adequa-te and timely fashion, justifiable from quantitative and qua-litative, and above all, ecological and economic points ofview. This response presently takes the form of extensionsand improvements to the road and rail infrastructure in andaround Leipzig.
Major components of these urban planning and transportprojects will be completed by the year 2006. Leipzig’s triplering-road system will be complete when the Autobahn Ring– approximately 15 km from the city centre – is ready in2006, along with the Middle Ring, approximately 6 km fromthe city centre, and the Inner Ring by 2011. There are addi-tional commitments to upgrading the inner-city’s primaryroad network and extending and improving several arterialroads between the ring roads and city centre.
Currently and in the coming years, the quality of the subur-ban railway will be further improved by constructing newlines and 2 tunnels, improving existing lines, optimisingrouting, renewing rolling stock and adjusting services to theneeds of less mobile users.
Current challenges include improving the transport infras-tructure around the Central Stadium and city centre, as wellas extending light rail lines to the east and west of the cityas feeder lines for visitors to sports events and the 2006FIFA World CupTM. We are supplementing this work at pre-sent by the installation of a inter-modal dynamic trafficmanagement system.
Leipzig’s transport system was put to the test during theGerman Gymnastics Festival in 2002. It succeeded in hand-ling up to 600,000 additional trips daily. Likewise, Rostockrecently had the opportunity to demonstrate its impressivetransport capabilities when, as annual host to “Hanse Sail”,it welcomed 400,000 visitors daily.
Even today, the transport systems of the Leipzig Olympicregion satisfy diverse requirements. A dense primary roadnetwork and a well-developed, extensive light rail networkoffer substantial reserves. Leipzig has initiated all the mea-sures necessary for further optimisation, with ecologicalaspects playing an important role therein. Current activitiesfocus on extensions to the stadium and the city centre. Thepublic transport system – already disability- and environ-mentally-friendly – will be further optimised.
Olympic Challenges and AnswersUsing the Olympic Games in Sydney as a yardstick, Leipzigmust anticipate approximately 1,500,000 to 2,000,000 tripsper day in addition to normal traffic volumes for the dura-tion of the Games. In order to ensure traffic that is fast-moving, efficient, safe, low-polluting, convenient and suita-ble for those with disabilities, user oriented transportservices with corresponding priorities are planned. Thisnecessitates a comprehensive “Olympic Transport Strate-gy” based on differentiated analyses and models of presentand additional Olympic Traffic. Complex and intelligent traf-fic and operations management will be required to imple-ment this strategy. A concept of this type is already beingdevised in cooperation with the Organising Committee ofthe 2006 FIFA World CupTM, when it will be implemented forthe first time. The accumulation of all traffic information ata traffic management centre will enable optimum control oftraffic of the different categories of users, including logis-tics transport.
Exclusive “Olympic Roads” guaranteeing a high level ofsecurity and speed will convey athletes, the Olympic Fami-ly, officials and media representatives. Special fleetmanagement, in addition to regular shuttle services, willenable the flexible use of vehicles. The City-owned trans-portation company has guaranteed the availability of 2,000buses.
The city, along with public transport operators, will devisean extensive Park and Ride (P&R) system entitling Gamesticket holders to free P&R parking and transport to compe-tition venues. This is an important cornerstone of the eco-logical transport concept, which we will optimise by con-necting P&R lots close to the highly efficient rail transportnetwork and a P&R management system along the Auto-bahn Ring. At the same time, access to parking areas wit-hin the Autobahn Ring will be restricted in order to limittraffic in the city.
To sum up, the compact concept for LEIPZIG 20I2 providesall the necessary conditions for an efficient Olympic Trans-portation System. Short distances between the major Olym-pic Sites and the use of low-emission driving technologiesattest to a responsible attitude toward the environment.Conditions for pedestrians and cyclists are ideal. Based onexisting infrastructure, an environmentally compatible, highstandard of mobility will be guaranteed for athletes, theOlympic Family, officials, media representatives, sponsorsand spectators during the Games. The same applies tologistics: a concept we plan to devise with a leading compa-ny in the logistics field.

Compact Games mean fast connections. From the OlympicStadium it will be possible to reach all other non-sportsvenues, the city centre, the Main Hotel Area and the MainHospitality Centre within 10 minutes. With the exception ofthe sailing and equestrian venues, all competition venueswill be accessible from the Olympic Village within 25 minu-tes. The concept will enable outstanding mobility for all dif-ferent categories of users during LEIPZIG 20I2:
>> Fast conveyance by shuttle buses and cars for athletes, the Olympic Family, officials and media representatives on “Olympic Roads”
>> An efficient public transport system (long-distance rail-way, suburban railway, light rail transit, buses) and con-venient P&R lots (40,000 spaces) for visitors
Athletes and technical officials will enjoy top priority. Shutt-le buses for athletes will run at regular intervals from 5:00am to midnight from the bus terminal at the Olympic Villageto the competition and training venues as well as to the citycentre. Services will be geared to training and competitionschedules. In addition, a fleet of vehicles will be available tofulfil individual mobility needs. 2 regular circular bus routeswill fulfil transport requirements within the Olympic Village.
Members of the Olympic Family and other officials will havean exclusive vehicle pool at their disposal (T1/T3 dedicatedvehicles, coach service, car pool) to satisfy their individualmobility needs using the “Olympic Roads”. With intelligentfleet management, vehicles will always be available as andwhen needed.
To convey media representatives from the media villagesand hotels, a 24-hour shuttle bus service will be provided(every 10 minutes from 5:00 am to midnight, more frequent-ly at peak times and every 20 minutes from midnight to 5:00am). The Media Shuttles will also connect the IBC, MPC andmedia villages to the airport and all competition venues via“Olympic Roads”.
Sponsors and IOC guests will have their own needs-orienta-ted coach system (Sponsor Coach Network) connecting thesponsor hotels with competition venues, the hospitality cen-tres and tourist destinations. Sponsor Coaches will be per-mitted to use the “Olympic Roads”.
Visitors will also benefit from the short distances. The close-knit network of frequent light rail, suburban railway trainsand buses will ensure that visitors, staff and volunteers arenot dependent on their own vehicles. In addition to linking allof the competition venues by public transport, the centralvenues can be easily accessed on foot or by bicycle. Directwalking distances from the Olympic Park to other OlympicSites are as follows:
The objectives of Olympic Transport during LEIPZIG 20I2 are:
>> Safe, secure and punctual service for the Olympic Family, giving priority to the athletes
>> Reliable public transport to the competition venues for spectators
>> Minimal disruption to the Leipzig community
>> Effective management of the traffic and transport network
>> Provision of a cost-effective transport service
Smooth and efficient conveyance of athletes, the OlympicFamily, officials and media representatives will be ensuredby a system of roads completely closed to general traffic. Thenetwork of “Olympic Roads” interconnecting all OlympicSites will effectively separate them from visitor flows, guar-anteeing short travel times and the highest possible level ofsecurity. Priority rests on a coherent system of “OlympicRoads” (84 km of exclusively reserved streets with no over-lap with other traffic), to result in transport over the shortestand best routes.
Independent transport systems for athletes, the OlympicFamily, officials and media representatives will be providedwith state-of-the-art, low-emission, low-noise vehicles withcomplex on-board information systems.
The 2 Olympic venues located at Dresden-Moritzburg andRostock will have similarly excellent connections, including,if needed, “Olympic Roads”.
The equestrian venue at Dresden-Moritzburg lies only 15minutes from Dresden Airport and 20 minutes from the his-toric centre of Dresden with its high-class hotels. This is alsothe location of the Dresden Kings Waterfront Hippodrome(dressage finals). It is easily accessible by ICE train fromLeipzig in only 45 minutes. Fast connections are also possi-ble via motorways A 4 and A 14.
The Olympic Sailing Village in Rostock will be only 300 mfrom the Olympic Marina. Fast connections to the centre ofthe Games in Leipzig will be available via non-stop flightsbetween the airports of the 2 cities, by high-speed train(ICE/IC) or buses.

Should the IOC entrust the City of Leipzig with the honourand responsibility of hosting the 2012 Games, the Gameswill begin with the Opening Ceremony on Friday 20 July2012 and end after 16 days of competition with the ClosingCeremony on Sunday 5 August 2012. The Leipzig Paralym-pic Games 2012 will take place from 15 to 26 August 2012.These periods were selected to ensure the best possibleclimatic conditions for training and competitions. Further-more, a favourable combination of environmental andregional factors such as the traffic situation, holidays andcultural events was sought in order to provide the best pos-sible conditions for athletes and visitors.
Similarly the choice of dates for the Paralympic Gamesapplies the same criteria and reflects the importanceaccorded to them.
ClimateAn evaluation of the statistics over the last 10 years hasshown that the period from 20 July to 26 August is ideal for staging the Olympic and Paralympic Games in Leipzig.During these 5 weeks the mean temperature between 9 am and 9 pm is 19-23° C, optimal for athletes and visitorsalike. With a mean value of 61 % between 9 am and 9 pm, the relative humidity provides ideal competitive con-ditions. This also applies to wind conditions: with consis-tently low average wind speeds of 3.0-3.9 m/s (meters persecond) and constant direction, no negative influences onthe competitions are anticipated. With an average of 3 daysof rain during the entire period, precipitation – traditional-ly low at this time of year – will be at its lowest level (moredetailed figures in Chart V and Question 22).
EnvironmentEmissions of air pollutants in Leipzig are well below thelegal limits. A clean air strategy is currently in preparation,aiming at further improving the quality of Leipzig’s air.
The records for Leipzig show relatively low levels of air pol-lution, even for the summer months when higher pollutionand low-level ozone layers are otherwise typical. The alarmthreshold pursuant to EU legislation for ozone pollution > 240 µg/m3 as a mean hourly value was not breached on asingle occasion over the past 5 years.
Pollution due to classic airborne contaminants has alsobeen reduced considerably in the past few years. In thesummer months pollution – for example, sulphur dioxide(SO2) levels – remained in the single-digit range of permis-sible values. The SO2 concentration for Leipzig in themonths of July and August sank to an annual low of 2 µg/m3
(threshold value 140 µg/m3).
TrafficDue to the holiday schedule, approximately 20 % fewergoods and 20 % less private traffic is normally observed inthe period when the Games will take place. This reducedtraffic means that additional capacity will be available forOlympic Traffic.
HolidaysThe months of July and August are the peak period forschool and university summer breaks in all German states.Many companies also schedule their vacation closedownsduring this period. This will give many local inhabitants theopportunity to attend the Olympic Games as day visitors,even on weekdays. Countless schoolchildren, students andothers will be available as volunteers. The dates for schooland university summer breaks in 2012 will be determinedin consultation with the future OCOG.
CultureAs the second pillar of the Olympisme, culture is an impor-tant aspect of the Games. The region and the City of Leip-zig enjoy a long tradition as important cultural gatheringplaces. Composers and writers such as Johann SebastianBach, Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, Friedrich Schiller, Cla-ra and Robert Schumann, Richard Wagner, Felix Mendels-sohn-Bartholdy and Franz Liszt all lived and worked inLeipzig. Nowadays, the city’s attractions include theGewandhaus concert hall with its world-famous orchestra,the opera, playhouse, numerous cabarets, as well as aninteresting mix of alternative culture, bars and festivals.The region also boasts a number of cities of significant cul-tural interest, such as Goethe’s Weimar (European City ofCulture 1999), Halle of Handel or Martin Luther’s Witten-berg. From its baroque centre overlooking the Elbe, Dres-den will provide an excellent setting for key events in theOlympic Cultural Programme. This programme will trans-form adjoining German states and neighbouring Europeancountries, such as the Czech Republic and Poland, into“Europe’s Cultural Mile”.
A wide range of cultural events takes place here from Juneto September every year. These will be incorporated into anattractive cultural programme to accompany and enhancethe Olympic and Paralympic Games.

Where East meets WestGermany’s current population is 82.5 million. This figureis expected to increase to 83 million by the year 2012. With230 inhabitants per km2, Germany ranks among Europe’smost densely populated countries.
The Free State of Saxony has approximately 4.3 millioninhabitants. The population density of 236 inhabitants perkm2 is slightly above the average for the Federal Republic.Due to heterogeneous trends in the surrounding ruralareas, the number of inhabitants is expected to declineslightly.
As an old trading city at the junction of Eastern and Western Europe, the City of Leipzig offers its 519,000inhabitants the cosmopolitan air, density and variety of a European metropolis. Committed to a long-term urbandevelopment policy, the city’s population is expected togrow to 525,000 by the year 2012. The metropolitan regionhas 1.9 million inhabitants. Leipzig is a genuine city ofchange, renewal and movement. This has never beenexpressed in the form of rapid expansion, but in continuedhigh-quality development of the city centre and surroun-ding districts.
Efficient, well-conceived and generous infrastructureenables the city to accommodate large numbers of visi-tors. Leipzig offers proximity and short distances, combi-ned with all the advantages of a modern, large city of the21st century. Natural resources within the city perimeters,such as the ecologically rich Auwald (alluvial forest)extending through the city from north to south and withinwalking distance of most residential areas, have beenpreserved. The size and diversity of the city makes it pos-sible to discover its riches without it losing its charm andintimate atmosphere. The arts and cultural scene, theenvironment, enjoyment and relaxation are all in closeproximity to each other and yet do not get in each other’sway. In 2012 Leipzig will have the privilege of inviting ath-letes, the Olympic Family and the guests of the Games totake part in the life of a pleasant and stimulating city. Theeasy-going, the free and yet homely atmosphere of thecity with its energetic citizens symbolises Leipzig’s life-style and its image of itself.
The Hanseatic City of Rostock, the venue of the sailingcompetition, has a population of 198,000, and the State ofMecklenburg-Western Pomerania has 1.7 million inhabi-tants. With its picturesque district of Warnemünde directlyfacing the Baltic Sea and its accessible location, Rostockis developing into an important urban centre on the Balticsouthern coast.

LEIPZIG 20I2 will offer excellent climatic conditions for ath-letes and visitors. In macroclimatic terms, the cities ofLeipzig and Dresden are in the transition zone between thecontinental and maritime climate. The Hanseatic City ofRostock has a maritime climate.
Overall, air temperatures in the Central European regionexhibit typical seasonal patterns with no meteorologicalextremes. Excellent macro- and microclimatic conditionscan be anticipated for the Olympic and Paralympic Games.Neither storms nor periods of extreme heat or rainfall areexpected.
Rostock, the venue for the sailing competitions, has excel-lent wind and temperature conditions that underscore itsspecial importance as one of the world’s finest sailing cen-tres. All wind directions guarantee optimal sailing condi-tions. The water currents along the coast at Rostock nor-mally run parallel to the prevailing winds at a speed of 5 to10 m/min, providing perfect sailing conditions.

Meteorology 22.
23. a CURRENT CONDITIONSAthletes in LEIPZIG 20I2 will be assured the best environ-mental conditions. In recent years the EU limit values for airpollutants have never been exceeded, nor has there beenneed to issue an ozone warning (annual mean O3 30 µg/m3).A dense monitoring network ensures exemplary environ-mental controlling. The water quality for the triathlon andsailing events fulfils the requirements of the EU Directivefor bathing water. Without any reservations, the drinkingwater quality can be classified as excellent. All OlympicSites will be embedded in the landscape to ensure the mostfavourable microclimatic conditions. With nature conserva-tion areas within the city covering a total area of 5,500 hec-tares, almost 900 hectares of parks and numerous water-courses, the city offers a natural quality of life at its veryheart – optimal conditions for the enjoyment of the entireOlympic Family.
23. b ONGOING PROJECTSFor many years, Leipzig and Rostock have been successful-ly committed to sustainable development. Public authoritiesand NGOs work hand-in-hand to meet the challengesbrought by change. Above and beyond the exacting Germanenvironmental standards, both cities have set themselvesambitious environmental quality targets. In addition, Leip-zig is participating in the European sustainability PRESUDproject. And the success is measurable: CO2 emissions perinhabitant in Leipzig, for example, have dropped by almost10 % since 1996 and the city is striving for an overall reduc-tion of 50 % for the period 1990 to 2010. The unique Auwaldis an outstanding example of successful nature conserva-tion in Leipzig. The Natura 2000 site provides a habitat forhundreds of animals and plants in the city centre.
Furthermore, the conversion of the former lignite miningdistrict to the south of Leipzig into attractive lakeland sce-nery has met with international acclaim. By 2012, the Leip-zig region will have 120 km2 of new lakes. The EXPO 2000project “Renaturalisation of the Cospuden Open Cast Mine”is a further outstanding example. The Rostock Council hasintroduced an EU eco-audit scheme. The concept of theNatura 2000 coastal woodland area known as the “Rosto-cker Heide” demonstrates how nature can be made acces-sible to the public and nevertheless protected. The conti-nued development of the “Warnow riverside” concept thatforms part of the LEIPZIG 20I2 bid will unite and benefitboth the sport of sailing and nature conservation.
One of the declared objectives of LEIPZIG 20I2 is to especi-ally encourage cooperations among sports and environ-mental organisations, fostering an urbane cultural move-ment.
23. c ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTLEIPZIG 20I2 is fully aware of its responsibility toward theenvironment and is committed to an all-embracing policy ofsustainability in compliance with the Olympic Movement’sAGENDA 21. Its binding guidelines were based on theGreenpeace Olympic Environmental Guidelines.
The “Integrated Environment Concept LEIPZIG 20I2” incor-porates the experience of the Federal Ministry for the Envi-ronment from the “Green Goal” concept of the 2006 FIFAWorld CupTM and renowned sports and environmentalexperts. The culture of democratic planning encourages theparticipation of environmental associations and AGENDA 21groups. Its primary goals are:
Neutral Impact on Land SurfacesLEIPZIG 20I2 will not increase the total area of sealed sur-faces, but it will effect a net gain in quality living space.Almost 70 % of the sites required for the construction ofOlympic Sites urban area or former mining areas. Theseareas will be upgraded by the Olympic project. The OlympicPark will be carefully integrated into the natural surroun-dings of the alluvial forest, primarily using derelict land. Therestoration projects incorporated into the Leipzig riverflood-meadow concept far exceed the re-balancing measu-res prescribed by law. Moreover, urban land will be turnedinto landscapes designed to promote sport and healthamong the entire population.
Neutral Impact on the ClimateLEIPZIG 20I2 will not cause additional greenhouse gases tobe released, either during the preparations, the Gamesthemselves, post-Olympic use or as a result of travel activi-ties. The use of innovative technologies and selected com-pensatory measures will offset emissions. The “Zero Emis-sion Olympic Village” developed to meet or exceed passivehousing standards and the consistent use of renewableenergies will vividly demonstrate how CO2 emissions can beprevented.
Environmentally compatible projects such as the “OlympicBicycle Project” and resource-conserving accommodationconcepts will contribute greatly to avoiding and minimisingimpact on the environment. LEIPZIG 20I2 will continue toexemplify the idea of sustainability long after this majorsporting event is over.
23. d ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STUDIESEuropean and German legislation call for environmentalimpact assessments. At the planning approval stage, theenvironment impact of all construction projects must beexamined with regard to location, type and scale. All propo-sed venue sites were additionally subjected to a voluntaryimpact assessment and the results were adopted in thedesign work. Furthermore, for the planning, organisationand staging of the Olympic and Paralympic Games, LEIPZIG20I2 will apply an audit procedure specially tailored to therequirements of the Olympic and Paralympic Games and inaccordance with EMAS or ISO 14001.

Multi-sport events staged previously in Germany includethe 1972 Olympic Games in Munich, the 1972 ParalympicGames in Heidelberg and the 1989 Universiade in Duis-burg. The World Games will be held in Duisburg in 2005.
Germany and the German national sports federations havea long list of successful major international sports eventsto their credit. These include, in the last 10 years, the annu-al World Equestrian Festival (CHIO) in Aachen or the annu-al International Stadium Festival (ISTAF) in Berlin, the IAAFWorld Championships in Athletics in Stuttgart and theWorld Championships in Fencing in Essen in 1993, theWorld Championships in Gymnastics in Dortmund in 1994,the World Championships in Athletics for the Disabled inBerlin 1994, the ICF World Championships in Canoeing inDuisburg in 1995, the Women’s World Handball Cham-pionships in 1997, the FISA World Rowing Championshipsin Cologne and the FIBA World Basketball Championships1998, the UCI Track World Championships in Berlin in 1999,the European Championships in Athletics in Munich in 2002and in 2003 the FINA World Swimming Championships inBerlin, the UCI Track World Championships in Stuttgart,the World Taekwondo Championships in Garmisch-Parten-kirchen and the World Championships in Nordic Combina-tion for the Disabled in Baiersbrunn. In 2006 the 5th FEIWorld Equestrian Games are scheduled to be held inAachen.
The annual Berlin Marathon with 43,000 athletes, andBundesliga football matches drawing approximately350,000 spectators each weekend, testify to the wide ran-ge of German experience in organising outstanding spor-ting events that hold a special appeal for the media andgeneral public.
Leipzig’s experience as the host of international sportingevents is based on a long sports history. As early as 1863and as recently as 2002, the City of Leipzig hosted the Ger-man Gymnastics Festival (Deutsches Turnfest) that todaynumbers over 100,000 active participants, making it Euro-pe’s largest sporting event.
The founding of the German College for Physical Culture(DHfK) in 1950 – today the Faculty of Sports Science at theUniversity of Leipzig with the Institutes for Sports Psycho-logy and Sports Education, Sports Medicine, Rehabilitationand Disabled Sports, General Movement and TrainingScience – was a further factor in regional acquisition ofcompetence in amateur and professional sports. Nume-rous sports medicine specialists and sports scientists fromall over the world have obtained their degrees and qualifi-cations at the University of Leipzig.
A significant number of international sports competitionsare held in Leipzig every year. Due to its outstanding sportsfacilities, the city is regularly selected to host World Cups,European and World Championships. This is a demonstra-tion of confidence by the International Federations in Leip-zig as a venue for major sports events. In addition to hos-ting a series of World Cup events, Leipzig is scheduled tohost the 2005 Weightlifting Championships, the WorldFencing Championships 2005, the 2006 FIFA World CupTM
and the World Archery Championships 2007.
The Hanseatic City of Rostock can also boast a series ofmajor sporting events, including the annual “Warnemün-der Week” and the annual “Hanse Sail” with over 1.2 mil-lion visitors in 2003. In 2000 the European Championshipsin the Laser Sailing took place in Rostock and the city hasapplied to host the World Sailing Championships in 2007.

25. a ULTIMATE RESPONSIBILITYAll necessary security measures will be coordinated by a“Federal Government-States Joint Committee” based onthe security guarantees to be provided by the FederalGovernment, and these will be summarised in an agreedupon “Security Concept for the 2012 Olympic and Para-lympic Games”.
Responsibility for overall operational security manage-ment during the Olympic and Paralympic Games will restwith the Chief of Police of the Free State of Saxony.
The highest standards of security will be achieved byestablishing an “Operative Control Centre for OlympicSecurity” in which the different areas of expertise andresponsibility are coordinated under common manage-ment and operational control.
The “Operative Control Centre for Olympic Security“ willbe staffed by high-ranking police executives of the Statesof Saxony, Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania and theFederal Government, the fire departments and rescueservices, as well as other security authorities.
A planning group, to which representatives of all theauthorities and federal-state institutions entrusted withsecurity duties have been appointed, is currently prepa-ring an initial outline concept for “Olympic Security” inclose cooperation with the Bid Committee.
25. b SECURITY RESOURCESSecurity with a high level of effectiveness and discretionwill be guaranteed during the Olympic and ParalympicGames (as it is for the preparations and the staging of theFIFA World Cup Germany 2006TM) by highly qualified poli-ce officers of the Free State of Saxony and the State ofMecklenburg-Western Pomerania and with the supportof the Federal Government and other states.
Approximately 20,000 police officers and 5,000 action for-ces from fire departments, rescue services and regulato-ry authorities will be ready to implement security pre-cautions, and, if needed, reinforcements will be providedby the Federal Government and other states.
For duties appropriate to the support of the security for-ces of the Federal Government and states, the OrganisingCommittee will also call in qualified private security ser-vices. A minimum of 5,000 employees will be available forthis purpose.
We also propose the deployment of specially trainedvolunteers.
Security measures will be supported by modern techno-logy, in particular with regard to:
>> access control>> central dispatching systems>> closed-circuit TV>> digitised communications systems
25. c SINGLE MANAGEMENT STRUCTUREUnder the laws of the Federal Republic of Germany, the Free State of Saxony and the State of Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania, responsibility may be transferred inthe case of emergency to a supreme management body.Special organisations of this type with effective manage-ment structures have already been successfully set upfor similar major international events.
Efficient structuring of the security forces enjoys highpriority.
The legislative organs of the Federal and State govern-ments are prepared to adapt statutory requirements tochanging conditions, particularly in the event of unfore-seen developments or circumstances. The current legalsituation offers all the prerequisites for hosting peacefuland secure Olympic and Paralympic Games 2012.

* Additional costs (8-digit figure) incurred for the necessary sediment removal. It has not been decided how these costs will be split between flood control measures ("inevitable costs") and sportsrelated expenses.
** In these competition venues, extra costs of between 25 and 75% of the overall costs should be added for removal, transport and reconstruction at other locations.
