The Board of Directors of International
Speedway Corporation has approved a multi-year redevelopment project for
Phoenix International Raceway.
The 52-year old venue will receive new and upgraded seating
areas, vertical transportation options, new concourses, enhanced hospitality
offerings and an intimate infield experience with greater accessibility to
pre-race activities. In addition to fan and spectator areas, PIR is exploring
improvements for competitors and industry personnel, particularly key
structures located throughout the infield.
The redevelopment project is
expected to cost approximately $178 million, is expected to commence in early
2017 and be complete in late 2018.
“Phoenix Raceway provides a
one-of-a-kind setting for some of the most exciting and thrilling races that
the sport has to offer,” said ISC Chief Executive Officer Lesa France Kennedy.
“This project will further enhance that experience and ensure that the venue
continues to be a treasured destination for race fans.”
