The town of Liversedge in West Yorkshire are set to benefit from the construction of the new Spen Valley Leisure Centre after the Kirklees Town Council appointed the contractor company Kier to build the new facility through a £15M contract, organised under the YORbuild2 Framework.
Construction of the new Spen Valley Leisure Centre will replace the pre-existing, 50 year old Spenborough Pool, being delivered on the same site, and will entail the construction of facilities such as a double-height foyer, wet changing areas, multi-activity space, a mezzanine, dry changing areas, a gym, exercise studios, and spectator seating.
Building is set to commence on the project some time in early 2020, while the new leisure centre itself will not be ready for use until the Autumn of 2021, however the project as whole will not be completed until the aforementioned Spenborough Pool facilities are demolished, which will not take place until the very end of 2021.
The new leisure centre is expected to improve the health and wellbeing of the people in Liversedge, as well as the Kirklees area, by providing additional facilities and opportunities to remain active by taking up sports and fitness.
The Operations Director at Kier Regional Building Northern, Phil McDowell stated: “We have a lot of experience in delivering leisure centres across the country and are thrilled to be working with Kirklees Council to deliver the brand-new Spen Valley Leisure Centre.
“The proposed new all-purpose facility reflects the desire to bring the leisure offer on the site up to current standards in a building of high quality, and to bring swimming and fitness under the one roof. It will provide a modern environment, with an efficient, simple layout and improved access to ensure it is accessible for all.”
