Swimming Pool at Clacton Leisure to remain closed for part of this week.

The pool at Clacton Leisure Centre is likely to
remain closed for the early part of this week.

Investigations into a technical fault which led
to the temporary closure of the pool began last week, and progress has been
made in identifying the issue and repairing it.

It is hoped the pool will open by the end of
this week – with plans for the Tendring District Council-run (TDC) leisure
centre to re-open the pool facility earlier if possible.

Pool users are urged to check the leisure
centre’s website and social media for the latest position.

Customers with existing bookings, such as
swimming lessons, will be contacted directly with updates.

Mike Carran, TDC Assistant Director for Economic
Growth and Leisure, apologised for the inconvenience.

“We are sorry for the continued closure of the
pool at Clacton Leisure Centre; we, along with our contractors, are working as
hard as we can to get the fault fixed so the pool can re-open,” Mr Carran said.

“As a reminder the Wellbeing Zone facilities at
the centre are unaffected, while customers with a swimming membership can use
the pools at our other centres in Walton-on-the-Naze and Dovercourt.

“We will keep customers updated through our
leisure centre social media channels and website, so keep checking those for
the latest position.”
