£17.9m Splashpoint leisure centre opens in Worthing
The new £17.9m Splashpoint leisure complex has opened to the public in Worthing, West Sussex.
Designed by Wilkinson Eyre Architects, the centre has replaced the former Aquarena venue on the site.
The scheme was project managed by Deloitte Real Estate on behalf of Worthing Borough Council following a RIBA design competition in 2009.
Facilities include a six lane, 25m competition pool and a learner/diving pool, an indoor leisure pool with flume and play facilities, an outdoor paddling pool, a 100-station health and fitness centre and two multi-use studios.
There is also a luxurious spa area with steamroom, heat beds and sauna and treatment rooms.
Splashpoint has a BREEAM rating of Very Good and design features include a sloping copper roof, intended to weather with the environment and compliment the natural surroundings.
Peter Curtis, sport project manager for Deloitte Real Estate said: "The project has a number of green credentials, including cooling being provided to the studio spaces via a ground source heat pump.
"The design is unique, and the facility will help to continue the regeneration of the coastline of Worthing."
The project team included Morgan Sindall (main contractor), Wilkinson Eyre (architects), AECOM (services, structural & civil engineers), Davis Langdon (cost consultants), Devin Consulting (water treatment specialists) and Baqus (CDM co-ordinator).
