Main contractor Wates Construction has started work on site to deliver the £21.5m leisure and community hub in Carlisle.
The project will see a redevelopment and expansion of the current Sands Centre sports and entertainment venue in central Carlisle off Bridgewater Road to add almost 40,000 sq ft – more than doubling its existing footprint to 100,265 sq ft.
Set across two storeys and accessed by a bespoke, internal ‘street’, the new centre will include a reception area, four-court sports hall, a 25-metre eight-lane swimming pool and 20-metre learner pool with moveable floor, wet and dry changing facilities, a 120-station fitness suite, dance studios, a café, bar and physiotherapy suite.
