Delays to the opening of Edinburgh's new Meadowbank Sports Centre came as a result of a snagging list running to over 600 defects – which included mould on the wall and urine stains.
A freedom of information request (FOI) revealed the myriad of issues identified with the new £49 million facility when it was handed to the council by contractors Graham Construction last month.
The 'state-of-the-art' community sports complex, stadium and running track, which replaces the original Meadowbank built to host the 1970 Commonwealth Games, finally opened on Tuesday (July 19) - two years late and £2m over budget.
