Redcar's new Leisure Centre to be sited between Kirkleatham Street and Ridley Street

A Multi-million pound regeneration scheme for Redcar has been given the go ahead today by Redcar and Cleveland Council.
 
The Council’s Cabinet held a special meeting to discuss options to invest in and develop the town and have agreed to:
 
· the creation of a ‘myplace’ arts and media centre for young people
 
. a leisure centre and swimming pool developed between Kirkleatham Street and Ridley Street
 
· a new library and civic and community facilities
 
· a multi-storey car park.
 
The total cost of the scheme, which will be developed in two phases, is projected to be £36.9 m, providing significant investment and job opportunities to the area.
 
The leisure centre facility will include a six lane, 25 metre swimming pool, leisure and children’s pool, eight court sports hall, junior gym and fitness suite and performance and dance areas.

Glad to hear the Labour council is committing to regeneration in such a fashion.
