Steel-framed leisure village for Selby

Main contractor ISG has been awarded the contract to construct a new steel-framed leisure centre in the North Yorkshire town of Selby for Alliance Leisure.

To be known as the Selby Leisure Village, the project will see ISG construct a 1,200m² steel frame building next to the recently opened Selby Leisure Centre.

Facilities will include ten pin bowling, adventure play area, indoor aerial trekking, adventure climbing and an indoor skate and BMX park.

The new structure will also incorporate a double-height area to accommodate an indoor ski simulator as well as a café/restaurant.

The £5M centre will be run by WLCT, who are the Council’s leisure providers.

Pete Burt, Managing Director at WLCT, said: “We are extremely pleased to be working with the council on this project, which will deliver a fantastic facility for families. The activities on offer will be enjoyable and accessible, providing a fun way for people to get active and healthy across the region.”

ISG is currently onsite at two other Alliance Leisure projects in Wigan and Prestatyn.

ISG’s Northern Regional Managing Director Danny Murray, commented: “These three schemes continue our long-standing relationship with Alliance Leisure as a primary delivery partner for the company’s extensive programme of improvements to municipal leisure services.”
