Work has started on a new £11m leisure centre for West Bromwich due to open in summer 2014.
The centre will include a 25m pool with learner pool, sauna, steamroom, four-court sports hall, 100-station fitness suite, dance studio, indoor children’s adventure play centre and parking.
DC Leisure has been behind the planning for the facility and will also build, run and maintain the complex.
Plans were approved by Sandwell Council last October with conditions relating to opening hours, and the submission of further details on external materials, drainage, lighting and CCTV.
Development director for DC Leisure Peter Kirkham said: “In partnership with Sandwell Council we aim to continue the legacy of the London Olympic and Paralympic Games by encouraging increased participation in physical activity and sport.”
Sandwell councillor Linda Horton said: “The West Bromwich Leisure Centre will provide a real focal point for the local community and we hope that the new facilities will help improve the health and wellbeing of families in the area.”
DC Leisure manages over 100 leisure facilities across the country and has built 11 facilities worth £110m over the past six years.
