Ascot racecourse has ordered a 拢10m programme to rectify problems with last year鈥檚 refurbishment project.

Arup and Peter Rogers, the director of Stanhope, had been called in to analyse problems at the 拢185m development after guests had complained of restricted views.

Ascot confirmed this week that four-and-a-half months of works will be carried out. These include:

  • Increased gradient of lawns to improve viewing
  • A temporary 2000-seat stand
  • Extra club, restaurant and bar
  • A permanent raised bandstand adjacent to the Parade Ring.
The scheme was designed by HOK Sport.
