- 2 years ago
The long-awaited opening of the new Meadowbank Sports Centre takes place today, as the £47 million building welcomes the first members of the public this morning.
It’s four and a half years since the closure of the old Meadowbank which was built for the 1970 Commonwealth Games and later hosted the 1986 Commonwealth Games too.
The new state-of-the-art centre, whose role is as a community sports facility, has improved indoor facilities including two multi-sport games halls with seating, three fitness studios and a gym with triple the number of exercise stations.
