Maintenance work at Westminster Lodge Leisure Centre learner pool
The teaching pool and confidence water area at Westminster Lodge Leisure Centre will close for maintenance work from Saturday 2nd to Friday 8th of September.
The work has been timed to take place after the summer holidays in a period of low-demand when school swimming sessions are not running at the site.
The main pool will remain open to the public for use while the work is taking place.
Everyone Active time-tabled swim scheme sessions will also continue, running to a revised programme in the main pool, where both the floor and the temperature can be raised. The maintenance work means that some sessions for adults have however had to be cancelled.*
Everyone Active manages Westminster Lodge Leisure Centre for St Albans City and District Council. It has notified members, key user groups and clubs about the temporary maintenance closure. Notices have also been put up around the leisure centre, as well as, on Everyone Active’s website and social media feeds.
Cllr Annie Brewster, Sports and Culture Portfolio Holder for at St Albans City and District Council, said: “Arrangements have been made with our contractors for this maintenance work to take place during one of the quietest times of the year. Significant efforts have been made to minimise disruption and we apologise to anyone inconvenienced by the temporary closure of the learner pool and confidence water area. Swimmers will be able to continue to use the main pool at Westminster Lodge or the facilities at Harpenden Swimming Pool, where there is also a learner pool.”
More information about the temporary maintenance closure of the learner pool at Westminster Lodge Leisure Centre is available on Everyone Active’s website.
