Robinson stadium. 
The track surface has deteriorated greatly due to the extensive use that the facility receives; the works which are expected to take two months to complete, will commence immediately. 
Upon completion of the upgrades, it is expected that the track will receive an appropriate certification from the IAAF, the governing body for athletics.  Further, the refurbishment coincides with preparations for the CARIFTA Track and Field Championship, which The Bahamas will host in March 2013.
