Final council approval for Oxford scheme
A new multi-million pound swimming pool complex for Blackbird Leys, Oxford, has moved a step closer after the local authority's planning review committee cleared the proposals.
The FaulknerBrowns Architects-designed project was initially given the go ahead by Oxford City Council's (OCC) strategic development control committee in late April. Despite being called in for further scrutiny by the planning review committee on 2 June, the proposals - including a competition-standard 25m pool - have now received the green light.
Facilities will also include a teaching pool and a 'fun' pool with jets and sprays. The facility is due to open in 2012.
