The stadium upgrading interventions concern all four sectors of the sports facility, in a more or less invasive way, but always respecting the functional and distributional logics to date and in particular for:
- the static upgrading of the facility. The structure presented some criticalities from the static and anti-seismic point of view, in light of the most recent regulations on the subject;
- carrying out all the works deemed indispensable for a better functionality of the premises of the sports facility, even away from sports events.
Briefly summarized are the interventions, divided by sector.
- South Sector: extraordinary maintenance of the offices of the “U.S. Alessandria Calcio 1912”, localized interventions of structural reinforcement of existing structures, surface restoration and waterproofing of the bleachers and upgrading of the historical facade on Spalto Rovereto.
- West Sector: interventions of structural reinforcement of the covered grandstand, marginal internal redistribution of the under- grandstand premises and construction of a new spectator area called “pitch view” in place of the existing “parterre” sector.
- North Sector: addition of a toilet facility under the existing bleachers (not subject to intervention) and a container used as a small retail outlet for local fans.
- East Sector: total demolition of the existing staircase and reconstruction of the same with prefabricated structures, preserving the layout of the first lower step.
