New £15.3m sports and leisure centre opens in Kirkcaldy, Fife
A new £15.3m sports and leisure centre has opened in Kirkcaldy, Fife, Scotland, as part of a £55m council-led project to open three new flagship facilities in the region.
As part of the Future of Leisure programme, the centre houses a 25m, six-lane swimming pool with poolside spectating for 90 people, a training pool with an underwater movable floor and accessible family wet-side changing facilities.
Users also have access to a 60-station gym, a purpose-built aerobics studio, a four-court sports hall and a children’s play centre with nearby café and a meeting room.
The facility also provides its own health suite and steam room located next to the pool area.
The opening of Kirkcaldy is the first of three new centres to open as part of Fife Council's £55m investment project. The other two facilities will open in Glenrothes and Dunfermline.
“The opening of this building marks the completion of the Council’s ‘Future of Leisure’ project,” said Jim Leishman, Provost of Fife.
“Firstly the restored and refurbished Carnegie Leisure Centre in Dunfermline and now two impressive brand new sports facilities in Glenrothes and here in Kirkcaldy are helping Fifers live a healthier and more active lifestyle thanks to this investment.”
Graham Construction was the main contractor leading the project – the same provider used on the recently-completed Michael Woods Sports & Leisure Centre in Glenrothes.
The designs for the Kirkcaldy Leisure Centre were provided principally by B3 Architects which acted as lead consultant, along with joint architects Cre8 Architecture.
The building project started in January 2012, as previously reported by Health Club Management and Leisure Opportunities.
