INGLEWOOD, Calif. (AP) In just six months, Taylor Swift is scheduled to step onto a stage inside a stadium that's currently a dusty cement bowl filled with busy construction workers moving around a 120-yard-long, 45-foot-high black oval sitting in the center.

A few weeks after that concert on July 25, the Los Angeles Rams and the Los Angeles Chargers will play their first preseason games in a stadium that currently has only a few dozen rows of the 70,000 seats installed, and almost nowhere to park in the construction site surrounding it.

The leaders of the 3,500 workers feverishly building SoFi Stadium south of downtown Los Angeles say everything is on schedule at SoFi Stadium despite its dusty appearance. The builders say the stadium is 85% complete, but the finishing touches will take up much of the construction horde's remaining time before late July.
