PEOPLE interested in the construction of Horwich Leisure Centre can watch part of the work taking place in real time.

Builders Wilmott Dixon has set up a webcam in the site of the £10million facility in Victoria Road meaning viewers can watch the swimming pool being built.

As well as the six-lane main pool, the centre will include a separate training pool, a four-court sports hall on the lower ground floor and a swimming pool viewing gallery.

There will also be a 100-station fitness suite multi-function studio with kitchen and reception area on upper floor — as well as changing room facilities.

The leisure centre is due to be completed in September.

A recent joint statement from Bolton Community Leisure Trust and Bolton Council said: "Our multi-million pound redevelopment of Horwich Leisure Centre is progressing really well and the inside is now taking shape.

"Lots of work is going on behind the scenes to fit out the building, which when it opens will be a hugely important facility for the local community."
