Description

The Tollcross International Swimming Centre in Glasgow has been extensively refurbished in preparation for the Commonwealth Games 2014. The existing 50 metre pool has ten lanes and a new 50 metre six-lane warm-up and training pool has been added with new fitness suites, an extension of the changing rooms, improvements to the café, further seating and a general refurbishment of the existing facilities. These improvements will not only provide suitable facilities for the Games but also for future major international swimming competitions as well as providing an excellent permanent recreational and sporting facility for local residents. The project was funded by Glasgow City Council (£13.15 million) and sportscotland (£650,000), works commenced in May 2011 and the new centre was opened in May 2013.
