The subway station was painted in the form of a 400m track in support of the city’s bid for the 2024 Olympics but 51.6 per cent of Hamburg residents voted no in a referendum.

Residents of the German city argued that money earmarked for the Olympic Games could be spent in better ways.

Hamburg was one of five cities remaining for the 2024 Summer Olympics along with Rome, Paris, Budapest and Los Angeles.
