Infrastructure

Workers are pictured at the construction site of the Rio 2016 Olympic Velodrome venue at the Rio 2016 Olympic Park in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil July 31, 2015. Brazil's largest ever corruption scandal threatens to slow down preparations for the Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro next year as it engulfs construction companies responsible for the lion's share of projects. Prosecutors investigating the scandal at state-run oil firm Petrobras have implicated more than 20 companies, including five that are working on Olympic venues and infrastructure.
