Construction is going ahead as planned and is scheduled for completion in October 2009 - a FIFA requirement.
After the World Cup, the City will lease the stadium to an operator as a commercial venture for an estimated 30 years.
The operating lease will include managing the urban park and Common surrounding the stadium.
The top tier of seats inside the stadium will be removed, leaving 55 000 seats, and space to use for income generation.
