A Liverpool Council cabinet member has admitted to being “really shocked” by the state of a much-delayed leisure centre.
Peter Lloyd Leisure Centre in Tuebrook has been lumbered with lengthy delays and is expected to reopen to the public in September. A further £1m is being spent by Liverpool Council on the site to get it back open after a number of setbacks.
Cllr Harry Doyle, cabinet member for culture and visitor economy, told a meeting of a select committee that he wanted to see the site reopened in the Autumn after being delayed enough. The Knotty Ash councillor has now revealed his shock at the condition the popular centre is in after being closed since the coronavirus pandemic began.
