Progress pledge on long-awaited leisure centre
The Chronicle
|October 09, 2025
IMMINENT progress has been promised on the building of a long-awaited new leisure centre in Newcastle.
Amid mounting frustration over delays to the planned Outer West Leisure Centre in West Denton, council chiefs now say that essential works holding up the project should start this month.
The area has been without a swimming pool since the old Outer West Pool, which has since been demolished, was shut at the start of the Covid pandemic in 2020. Its intended replacement, a “state-of-the-art” sports and leisure facility on the site in West Denton Way, was meant to open in summer 2024.
But construction is yet to even start on the multi-million pound complex, which has suffered from a series of setbacks, and its target opening date has now been pushed back until late 2027.
