Caerphilly Leisure facilities set for revamp
Leisure facilities in Caerphilly County Borough, Wales are set for a revamp as councillors meet to discuss a raft of improvements.
The borough council's Environment Scrutiny Committee is considering a range of investment ideas that have been proposed by individual leisure managers.
Suggested improvements include an indoor 3G training surface at New Tredegar Leisure Centre; interactive water features, a play zone and slides for the pool at Cefn Fforest Leisure Centre; and a modular changing room at Bedwelty sports field.
It has also been proposed that the tennis courts at Risca Leisure Centre are converted in to a floodlit 3G area and that vibration training equipment is installed in fitness suites at Newbridge, Pontllanfraith and Risca Leisure Centres.
Cllr David Poole, cabinet member for community and leisure, said: "Our sports and recreation facilities play an important part in getting people active in the borough, and it is important that these facilities are maintained to the highest standard to ensure an unrivalled customer experience.
"The current suggestions aim to ensure significant improvements across the borough, benefiting current users of these facilities, and encouraging in-active people to get involved in physical activity."
In addition to the proposals, overall improvements to the buildings at Newbridge and Risca Leisure Centres are also planned.
