Lahti Kisapuisto stadium artificial turf renovation is progressing rapidly

The installation of the new artificial grass will start this week. The work will be completed by Midsummer at the latest.

The installation of the new artificial turf at Lahti Kisapuisto stadium has gone well.

The elastic layer is modern, and the artificial turf filler is different from the rubber granules of the past. According to Rajala, the artificial turf in Lahti Stadium is similar to that in Tammela Stadium in Tampere, for example.

According to the contract, the work must be completed by 20 June. Mr Rajala estimates that the replacement work is currently slightly ahead of schedule.

The work will cost the city of Lahti almost € 760,000.

The old artificial turf of the stadium is already in use on Karisto field.
