Rio De Janeiro<\/strong>: Rio de Janeiro’s special events secretary Ruy Cezar said the majestic Maracana stadium will be ready for the 2014 World Cup though construction work is just 40 percent complete.<\/p>\n

Cezar’s comments came after Brazilian newspaper Folha de Sao Paulo reported that Maracana would not meet even the International Olympic Council’s (IOC) demands for the 2016 Olympics despite its $545 million revamp, Xinhua reported.<\/p>\n

“We are completely satisfied with the way the refurbishments have been going and we have a commitment to the governor Sergio Cabral to have it ready in time for competition,” Cezar said during a business World Cup seminar in Rio.<\/p>\n

Cezar said Rio’s municipal council had opened the tendering process for the restoration of the stadium’s surrounding area, which is prone to flooding.<\/p>\n

Works are also being done on roads connecting Maracana to the Engenhao stadium, which will host the Olympic athletics events.<\/p>\n

“We are going to build systems that resolve these problems, apart from recuperating the transport corridor to the Engenhao which is currently in a poor state,” Cezar. (IANS)<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
