The Sportspark swimming pool is set to reopen on Friday January 28 after engineers carried out emergency repairs.

Work took place to fix a mechanical fault on the pool's moveable floor, which occurred on Saturday January 22.

Water levels were lowered to 1.2 m to repair damaged floor jacks.

But staff are now preparing the pool for use by re-filling it, treating the water and making sure it is at the right temperature for swimmers.

Customers are advised to check the 'latest news' section of the Sportspark website, www.sportspark.co.uk, for more information.
