09 Feb 2010 £15m pool planned for South Tyneside
BY Pete Hayman
South Tyneside Council (STC) has moved forward with plans to develop a new £15m swimming pool in South Shields after agreeing to appoint a design team by 16 February.
Five design companies are being considered for the Pier Parade facility, which will include a 25m swimming pool with spectator seating, a learner pool, leisure waters and a sauna and a fitness suite.
A multi-purpose space, a tourism information centre, a library access point and an outdoor performance area linked to the park are also included in the plans, which are expected to be submitted in the spring.
STC lead member for culture and wellbeing, Tracey Dixon, said: "The Foreshore pool complex is an investment for the future and the building will be designed to ensure it is sustainable and energy efficient.
"It is great news for the people of South Tyneside because the pool will bring great benefits for them; it will also make our stunning seafront even more attractive for visitors who will have even more reason to return to South Tyneside for holidays and visits."
