Bukittinggi, (Antara Sumbar) - Several agendas in 2017 Tour de Singkarak (TdS) series in Bukittinggi, West Sumatra, must be shifted after a fire at Ateh Market's local shopping center, local government officials said.
"In the series of TdS activities in Bukittinggi as the grand final location, the celebration activities will not be held in Jam Gadang, moved to Kantin Field at Sudirman Strret," Head of local Disparpora Erwin Umar stated in Bukittinggi, Monday.
According to him, because the condition was overwritten, it was considered impossible to hold a celebration at Jam Gadang which is located opposite the Ateh Market shops.
"There is a dinner for the participants, the initial plan is held in Jam gadang as well as promoting the atmosphere there but due to unfortunate in the market, dinner is moved to Kantin Field," he said.
He mentioned since three days before the closure of TdS, the local government has prepared a series of art activities that are also planned to be implemented in the Kantin field.
Currently, TdS preparation in Bukittinggi has reached 85 percent and the concern is the road feasibility because there are still excavations to replace PDAM pipes.
The International Cycling Union (UCI) has warned that the excavation work should be completed by November 11, 2017 and the Sumatra River Basin V as the party performing the work has undertaken.
"It is responsible for the excavation work, after November 11, 2017, it will be monitored by UCI," he continued.
TdS in 2017 was held on November 18 to 26, 2017 and Bukittinggi entered in stage nine as well as "grand finish".
The international bike race will be attended by 30 countries with 20 bicycle teams consisting of 15 international teams and five national teams. (cha)
