Redevelopment of Hartham Leisure Centre
As part of the East Herts Council’s investment in leisure, Hartham Leisure Centre in Hertford is being refurbished and expanded. A new two-storey extension is under construction on the footprint of the previous studio and reception area. The new extension will see brand-new state-of-the-art facilities, and there will be a significant investment in refurbishing the existing building.
Construction entered its main phase last month when work to build the new two-storey extension. The front of the old building is completely demolished and a new temporary studio located in the rear car park whilst this final phase is completed.
Eric Buckmaster, executive member for wellbeing at East Herts Council, said:
“I am delighted the newly refurbished swimming pool at Hartham Leisure Centre is open for public use. We now have a pool hall and modernised changing village, that will provide vitally important health and well-being facilities for Hertford residents and surrounding areas for many years to come.
Phase three is already underway to construct the new two-storey extension with extra studio space, a state of the art gym, new soft play areas and a café and I look forward to seeing the completion of this major project next year.”
The re-development programme for the leisure centre is on track for completion by Summer 2023.
Warren Doo, director at Cadman Construction Ltd, added
“We delighted to be working with an outstanding team of architects and technical advisors delivering this BREEAM ‘Excellent’ build. This means a legacy of long-term sustainability in terms of carbon reduction and improved whole life costs of the building once operational.”
