LONDON, May 2 (Xinhua) -- The London Organising Committee of the Olympic and Paralympic Games (LOCOG) started its full-scale test of the Olympic Park on Wednesday as it delivers six final sporting test events as part of the London Prepares series.

Seb Coe, LOCOG Chair said: "We are now in the final stages of the testing programme. Testing the Olympic Park and its operations is a hugely important part of our plans.
"Over the last 10 months, over 250,000 spectators have watched world-class sport as part of the 'London Prepares series' test event programme, and, in doing so, every one of them is helping10 us deliver the best possible Games this summer "
The Olympic Park is at its busiest as preparation for the Games continues.
