£31m pool in Dundee set to open next week
The new £31m Olympia pool in Dundee, Scotland, is about to open its doors as part of the ongoing investment into Dundee's waterfront.
The new centre, which opens its doors to the public next week, features a 50m, variable depth pool, four water slides, a gym and a café. Two of the slides feature digital projection technology, meaning that the image will appear in front of the sliders face as they descend.
The pool, which is opening several months late, replaces the recently closed Olympia, which is set to be demolished in the coming months.
Bosses of the nearby Gallagher Retail Park have expressed concerns about potential parking problems as the leisure centre's adjoining multi-storey car-park will charge drivers to park, whereas the retail park offers free parking for two-hours.
