Story summary
- Alps 2030 organizers will move ice-sport events from Nice to the Lyon metropolitan area after mayor Eric Ciotti opposed a temporary rink and rejected a skating arena and western-Lyon Olympic village.
- Ciotti suggested using Nice’s exhibition centre for figure skating and locating the Olympic village 15 km (nine mi) away.
- Organisers said Nice’s options were unsatisfactory, selected Lyon as the best venue, and will decide by end-June after analyses meet the IOC schedule.
