Shopping/recreation facilities
Plan: The village will have an international zone which will be the point of contact for the press and the athletes. Visitors to the village will not be allowed beyond this zone. A dining hall too will be constructed here.
status: The work will begin in January 2009 as these will be temporary structures

Sports facilities
Stadia and warmup area
Plan: The village will house training areas for athletes. The area will have a fitness centre, an Olympic- sized swimming pool, an athletics track and an indoor hall for wrestling and weightlifting
status: Tenders were invited for the construction. A decision on the tenders received will be taken by February 19 and thereafter construction will begin

Along railway line
Noise barrier
Plan: A 1.1-km long sound barrier will be built along the railway tracks facing the Commonwealth Games Village complex between Tilak Bridge and Anand Vihar Railway Stations on the Delhi-Ghaziabad section of Northern Railways. This is being done to ensure that noise created by the running of trains (around 75.5 decibels) in that section is blocked out of the village. Technical assistance for the creation of this sound barrier is being provided
status: Project would take about 3-4 months to be implemented. Railways will undertake it a few months before the Games

Residential facilities
For athletes and staff
Plan: The contract to construct the residential zone has been awarded to Emaar-MGF which has already started the construction of apartment complexes that will house approximately 8,000 athletes. The complex will include approximately 1,161 apartments comprising 4,000 bedrooms. The apartments range from 1,250 square feet to 3,000 square feet in size and will be spread across 34 towers that are 5-9 storeys high
status: While the sample flats are ready, construction on the residential complex is underway. Sources at Emaar-MGF confirm that the residential zone will be completed by March 2010. As of now about 3% of the work is done
