New Grimsby leisure centre on track for 2014 opening
A new and improved leisure centre is set to replace the ageing Scartho Swimming Pool in Grimsby by 2014.
North East Lincolnshire Council (NELC) has approved plans for the new facility which will include an eight-lane, 25m pool, a separate learning pool and a heath and fitness club.
As part of the council's commitment to build a legacy following the 2012 Games, local disability groups have been consulted about the new pool to make it fully inclusive.
The council is currently in the process of completing detailed design work and hopes to seek planning consent later this year.
Councillor Mick Burnett, NELC's portfolio holder for sport, said: "This new facility will be a marked improvement on the current ageing Scartho Baths pool, and in this economic climate we will ensure that it meets the needs of as many of our users as possible."
