Burscough Sports leisure centre set for £3.18m upgrade

West Lancashire Borough Council has approved £3.18m worth of funding to significantly upgrade facilities at Burscough Sports leisure centre.

The refurbishment will deliver a modern leisure, wellbeing and fitness facility which will “integrate new technology and trends to meet user needs and preferences”, while also improving the building’s look and feel. An entirely new layout will look to optimise capacity and create more flexibility in how spaces are used. The plans, produced in partnership by the council and its development partner, Alliance Leisure, will also improve the building’s sustainability.

Improvements will include a refurbished and extended gym with 70 stations and functional training space, new indoor cycling studio, wellbeing suite with power-assisted equipment and a refurbished sports hall and squash court floors.
