The London 2012 Olympics are on course to be the most over-budget games in 16 years after organizers have failed to accurately forecast security demands and private investment, Bloomberg reported.

A study by the University of Oxford predicts that the sports celebration hosted in the British capital is likely to cost double its original estimates, making the event the most expensive one since the 1996 Olympics in Atlanta, when costs overran by 147 percent.

The British government has already tripled its original budget to an estimated 9.3 billion pounds, after failing to finance and develop the main site.

The security budget was doubled to 553 million pounds last year, as the original estimate of 10,000 guards fell short by nearly 14,000 people. （點(diǎn)擊彭博社網(wǎng)站查看原文）

?????? 據(jù)彭博社報(bào)道，2012倫敦奧運(yùn)會(huì)有望成為16年以來(lái)超預(yù)算最多的一次奧運(yùn)會(huì)，原因是奧組委未能準(zhǔn)確預(yù)計(jì)安保需求和私人投資總額。

?????? 牛津大學(xué)的一項(xiàng)研究預(yù)測(cè)，這場(chǎng)在英國(guó)首都舉行的體壇盛事，開銷很可能將達(dá)預(yù)期的兩倍，倫敦奧運(yùn)也將成為1996年亞特蘭大奧運(yùn)會(huì)以來(lái)最“燒錢”的一場(chǎng)奧運(yùn)會(huì)。據(jù)悉，亞特蘭大奧運(yùn)超支147%。

?????? 無(wú)力支付建設(shè)主體育場(chǎng)的費(fèi)用之后，英國(guó)政府已經(jīng)將預(yù)算增加到了原來(lái)的三倍，達(dá)到93億英鎊。

?????? 因原先1萬(wàn)人的安保隊(duì)伍又新增了14000人，安保預(yù)算在去年也增加了一倍，達(dá)到5.53億英鎊。
