Nottingham Tennis Centre gets extra investment
Nottingham City Council’s Leisure Centre Transformation Programme continues with proposals to refurbish and upgrade facilities at the Nottingham Tennis centre.
An estimated £735,000 will be spent developing the building; work includes:
-
Replacing the ground floor catering with a new air cooled fitness suite with multi activity / spinning studio
-
Re-location of the ground floor catering to the first floor
-
Undertaking building condition works for mechanical and electrical services
Information boards explaining the Leisure Centre Transformation programme and the new proposals go on public display at the Tennis Centre from today until 21 April.
Staff will be on hand today from 2pm-8pm to meet centre users and members of the public who will be invited to feed back their thoughts and suggestions in relation to the proposed new development.
Feedback can also be given via Customer Feedback Forms issued on the day or via the Web Site on www.nottinghamcity.gov.uk/transformation.
Portfolio Holder for Communities, Leisure and Culture, Councillor David Trimble, said: The proposals are part of the City Council’s ambitious transformation programme to provide 21st century leisure facilities across Nottingham and we welcome feedback from the public on these exciting plans.
We hope that the improvements will mean the centre is better able to meet the diverse needs of our customers and that even more people will make use of the centre and benefit from the improved facilities on offer.
This proposed investment will improve and enhance the facilities for local residents who use the centre all year round and will go ahead despite the LTA’s recent decision to withdraw the Men’s ATP tour event from Nottingham in 2009.
Development works are due to start at the end of June and are scheduled to reach completion in late Autumn 2008.
