Stadio della Roma was the temporary name for Serie A team A.S. Roma's planned stadium in the Tor di Valle neighborhood of Rome. But as of February 2021, the project was halted after being planned to open in the 2020–21 season. The planned location was along the Roma Tiburtina station and accessible via the main highway A24-A25 connecting the city with Leonardo da Vinci–Fiumicino Airport, by Suburban railways and the line B' s Quintiliani station.[1] Seating capacity was planned for 52,500 spectators. The stadium was designed by American architect Dan Meis in collaboration with the multidisciplinary engineering firm SCE Project and Arup (MEP engineering) and it was said to be inspired by the ancient Colosseum. Features of the stadium included luxury boxes, and a 14,000-seat section designated for the Ultras of the Curva Sud in the Stadio Olimpico. [2]
