Construction News Image
Interserve has won a £25 million contract to build a one of England's biggest leisure developments in Hampshire.

The new Fleming Park Leisure Centre has been designed by AHR Architects and will be built next to the existing facility in Eastleigh.

Work is already underway on the project, which will see the old leisure centre demolished after the new building is handed over.

The 85-week build programme includes a sports hall with room for 15 badminton courts; an eight-lane, 25-metre swimming pool; a learning pool with adjustable floor depth; three multi-purpose studios and a group spinning studio.

In addition, a crèche and a large soft-play area will be built, including party rooms.

The building will be developed with a steel frame and pre-stressed concrete floors, while the pool will be made with reinforced concrete. Externally it will be clad in brickwork, aluminum and zinc rainscreen.

Interserve's UK Operations Director for Regional Building, Richard Ellis, said: "We are looking forward to delivering a modern and sustainable new leisure centre that will be a focal point for the local community, improving the health and well-being of residents for many generations to come.

"As part of the project we will be creating local jobs and using many members of our trusted local supply chain."
