Leisure centre completion
In just over a year, Bondholder Morgan Sindall Construction has completed a 18,300 sq ft state-of-the-art leisure centre worth £6.3 million.
The venue in Market Rasen, Lincs is set over two storeys and will feature 40 pieces of Technogym cardio and strength equipment. A modern spin studio will feature 15 Kaiser cycling bikes. There will also be space and connectivity to allow instructors to deliver virtual classes to residents looking to pursue a healthier lifestyle from home.
Team sports and group activities are well-served by a 7,400 square foot sports hall and an external 3G all-weather pitch, while gym users will also have access modern changing areas.
Designed by CPMG Architects, the centre will be operated by Everyone Active and is a cornerstone in the local authority’s proactive strategy to improve the health and wellbeing of people in the area.
Rob Cant, Scape Regional Construction framework director, at Morgan Sindall Construction, said: “The importance of prioritising health and wellbeing has been reinforced in recent months. People around the country are eager to return to modern, well-designed leisure facilities and gyms as soon as they are able to.
“This has been a great project to deliver from start to finish. Working through the framework has facilitated effective early collaboration from everyone involved, enabling us to build the centre safely and without undue delay.”
Morgan Sindall Construction received praise from local councillors for its safe and efficient delivery of the project, which has taken just over 12 months despite the operational challenges posed by the site and current climate.
