Planning approved for Haltemprice Leisure Centre expansion
Haltemprice Leisure Centre, in Anlaby, Yorkshire, has been given the go ahead to expand, providing a number of local services under one roof including a doctor’s surgery, library and customer service centre as well as sport and fitness facilities.
The £6m makeover of the leisure centre was given planning approval on 18 December by the East Riding of Yorkshire Council, which also owns the facility.
The scheme will also see a Tone Zone fitness suite extended, pool and sports hall refurbished, a new café, refurbished outdoor pitches and additional parking.
Construction will also address a number of maintenance requirements and improve energy efficiency.
The council stated the partnership with the NHS to provide a doctor’s surgery at the centre strengthened the link between keeping active and keeping healthy.
Leader of East Riding of Yorkshire Council Stephen Parnaby said the centre attracted 1.1m visitors last year, making it one of the most visited in the country.
“By providing a number of facilities under one roof, the council aims to improve services while at the same time lowering costs,” he said.
