Investors Group Field has new artificial turf installed: PHOTOS

The company FieldTurf produces the state-of-the-art artificial turf that now makes up the field at Investors Group Field, the new Blue Bombers stadium. After the carpet of artificial grass is laid, 500 tonnes of rubber and sand are poured into the "grass" to create infill. Here are photos from the installation on Tuesday, October 16th.
