The location of four sporting venues for the 2008 Olympics will be revised, it was revealed Sunday at the 29th IOC Coordination Commission meeting.

There were no details at press time regarding which venues would be moved, or the revised location, reported Beijing Today.

Sources at the three-day meeting, which began in Beijing Wednesday, said the discussion covered preparations for the Olympics, including the venues currently under construction and those on which construction is soon to start.

All venues are guaranteed to be finished before 2007, BOCOG President Liu Qi said yesterday.

Liu also said that Beijing would fully learn the lessons from the 2004 Athens Olympics, and pay serious consideration to the overall plan of venues construction.
