The £12m Tudor Grange Leisure Centre in Solihull is set to open its doors to the public at the end the month.
The new fitness facility will feature a 25m, eight-lane swimming pool and separate learning pool and a diving/multi-use pool with an adjustable floor, as well as a 100-station fitness suite and treatment room, sports hall and an indoor tennis court.
Additional facilities will include a café bar, crèche and a meeting room.
The new venue replaces the old Tudor Grange and Norman Green Leisure centres, which were closed by Solihull Metropolitan Council (SMC).
Parkwood Leisure will run the new centre on behalf of SMC on a 30-year lease under a new company called Rivendell Leisure.
Cllr Diana Holl-Allen, cabinet member for quality of life and neighbourhoods, said: “At a time when councils are closing down leisure centres, we have been able to find a way to not only keep ours open but provide a brand new facility. And the icing on the cake is that as part of this whole project we are going to be able to make significant improvements to Tudor Grange Park as well.”
