Current project status

Options will exist to provide a combination of central vertically moving booms to subdivide the pool into a deep-water pool. This will be for swimming and training with varying water depths provided by the use of floating floor.

This allows for many uses:

  • 150mm depth for parents and toddlers or splash dance.
  • 300- 800mm depths for learning to swim programmes
  • 600-900 depths for swimming development training and school use
  • 800-1500mm depths for general recreational swimming
  • 1500mm-2000mm depths for race diving practice, life saving, synchronised swimming and competitive swimming.
  • Easy pool access for wheelchair users.
