Inspiring Active Places - New Facilities
Yes. We have lived a long and happy life at the Fort, but the building is no longer fit for purpose as a Sports facility and we need to make way for the essential maintenance needed to bring the building up to modern standards for its future use.
The age, size and scale, as well as the historical significance of the building, makes refurbishment of the Fort for Sports, financially untenable. The much lower investment needed to deliver the IAP Strategy will help us continue to provide the local community with accessible and affordable Sports and Fitness facilities in the long term.
No, we will not close the facility until the alternative is ready to accept our members.
Following a recent update from the building contractors working on the new facility at Springfield we are very pleased to announce that the new facility will be ready to open to our members on Monday the 15th May.
There will be an additional 60 parking spaces made available in and around the Springfield facility as part of the plans, 40 is the space known as the "Gyratory" plus 20 spaces at Springfield School that can be used outside school times by Active members.
