Horfield Leisure Centre in Bristol set for £4.8m redevelopment

Bristol City Council has given the green light for a £4.8m redevelopment of Horfield Leisure Centre in the north of the city.

The works will include a gym extension with brand new equipment, which will take the total number of workout stations to over 160.

Other improvements include refurbished gym changing rooms upgrades to the 25m swimming pool, as well as the redevelopment of the squash courts, café and reception area.

A mezzanine floor will also be added, alongside a group indoor cycling studio and soft play area, while energy-saving initiatives will be introduced throughout the building.

Preparatory works have already begun on the project and the building is set to stay open for the duration of the refurbishment.
