£1m more in council cash to be pumped into leisure centre works

Further council funds are to be pumped into refurbishment of a much delayed Liverpool leisure centre.

Liverpool Council is to spend an additional £1m to advance work at the Peter Lloyd Leisure Centre in Tuebrook as delays continue to mount. It was revealed last month that the site is slated to reopen in September, a full year later than billed.

Cllr Harry Doyle, cabinet member for culture and visitor economy, confirmed to committee members that further cash was being invested into speeding up the works to meet the new deadline and “bring it up to scratch.” He said: "I want that centre open in September, it’s been delayed enough."
