The Csörsz Street block of the University of Physical Education was completed in several phases. The area includes an internationally certified athletics track with a 400-metre, eight-lane running track, an artificial turf football pitch and two outdoor tennis courts. The campus includes a multi-purpose hall with 1,300 seats for handball, basketball, volleyball and gymnastics training and competition. The halls also have a lobby for university events, a 200-space indoor garage and a 700 square-metre gym. A special design element of the project was the special fence on the BAH node, called the colonnade. The colonnade is an undulating curved boundary motif with a grid dynamic, reflecting the circulation of the BAH hub. When the University of Physical Education was developing the sports fields, it was a priority to ensure that the campus facilities were suitable for the education of students with disabilities, thus supporting their preparation for the Paralympics.
