A universal heated playing field is being installed at the Metallurg stadium. This was reported by the City Facilities Complex. It will be possible to play rugby and football there. This will expand the training opportunities for students of the Bauman Moscow State Technical University, for whom the stadium has become a home arena. The work is being carried out as part of the reconstruction of the historical site. The main task is to turn the stadium into a modern and multifunctional sports area that will meet current standards and requirements.

The old football pitch has already been dismantled. Work is underway to install a sports lighting system and prepare the foundation for the circular running tracks. A layer of sand has already been laid and compacted for the multi-purpose arena, and a drainage system has been installed. Then large crushed stone was poured onto the sand and compacted, then another layer of sand, in which the heating system pipes are laid. At the same time, two layers of smaller crushed stone are being compacted using a vibratory roller, and then a special artificial grass surface will be laid.

The total size of the new universal playing field will be over nine thousand square meters — 2.6 thousand more than the previous one. Due to which it can be used for two sports. Using special markings, a zone for playing football will be allocated (its size will be 68 by 95 meters), and the rugby area will occupy an area of over 8.1 thousand square meters. In addition, mobile football goals will be installed to quickly transform the field for different sports, which are easy to remove.

Since the requirements for the finishing surface for both sports are the same, artificial turf will be used. A cushioning layer will be laid underneath it, which will reduce the possibility of injury during a rugby game. Artificial grass is easy to maintain and operate. To ensure the thickness, density and stability of the pile, it will be sprinkled with sand and combed so that it settles. The next layer will be laid in the same way with fine rubber crumb – it will create an additional cushioning layer and help reduce impact loads. In addition, to maintain the playing characteristics of the artificial turf in the cold season, a system of heating pipes is provided – it will be possible to play even in winter.

A 610-seat stand with a canopy will be installed next to the universal arena. It will be connected to the administrative and household complex, which has already begun to be built. It will be convenient to follow the progress of the matches on a special scoreboard. Eight running tracks will be laid around the playing field, and the same number will appear on the side of the stand for short-distance training. It will be possible to conduct training in the evening: four 35-meter sports masts with 22 floodlights in each will be installed on the field.

Projects to create a comfortable urban environment, implemented in the capital, correspond to the goals and objectives of the national project “Infrastructure for life”.
