Which part of the roof will actually be having glass, all of it or a portion of it? If it's all, will they have air condition or fans?  |

They will put glass everywhere except a certain portion on the top if I remember right....As far as the inside of the roof, it will be covered in wood to reduce the echoing from the funs and cyclists...I don’t think they will cover the metal beams but instead they will dress them up with wood.. |

I've seen photos in which the roof creates a spectacular pattern of light and shadow all over the stadium.
It's pretty but it looks like something that will distract the cyclists....and the similar, bigger version on the main athletics stadium may have a similar effect.
Or are there additional glass/polycarbon panels that have yet to be installed that are supposed to cancel out the shadow/light effect? |

Illumination and wood coated panels, will prevent distraction of the cyclists!  |
