NCC and the City of Vantaa have signed an agreement for a new swim centre in Vantaa, Finland. The swim centre is part of a larger initiative involving a new sports facility in the city, called Elmo Sport Park. The order value for the swim centre is c. €40.9m.
The swim centre will be one of the largest in the country and is the first project to be built in the Elmo Sport Park. It will cover an area of approximately 9,400m2 and feature seven different pools; a 50-meter pool with 10 lanes, therapy pool, teaching pool, diving pool, paddling pool, children’s pool and a cold pool. The assignment also includes the construction of a gym and exercise room.
“Swim centres are demanding wet room contracts and based on our solid experience, we will construct a facility that matches the city’s budget, has a long service life and is efficient to operate over time. We look forward to realizing the City of Vantaa’s vision and this major investment in sports, which will start with the construction of this swim centre,” said Catarina Molen-Runnas, Head of NCC Building Nordics.
The facility will be energy efficient. Solar panels will be installed on the roof and heat from the pool and showers will be recirculated. Part of the building will also have a ‘green roof’.
Construction will begin during summer 2024 and the project is expected to be completed in 2026.
