Aberdeen sports village pool closed after leak found

The 25m swimming pool at Aberdeen Sports Village is currently closed to allow unexpected essential maintenance work to be completed.

At the present time, the exact duration of the closure is not known.

It has become apparent that there is a seepage of water from the pool tank, and work is being carried out to ascertain the source of this before appropriate remedial work can be actioned.

Duncan Sinclair, Chief Executive at Aberdeen Sports Village said: “We apologise for the inconvenience to our customers whilst the 25m pool is closed.

“However, with some careful re-programming of the 50m pool, we will continue to provide the vast majority of our usual programme despite this closure.

“We will keep our customers updated via our website and social media channels, and as soon as we have a clearer indication of the duration of the closure we will let customers know.”
