Dorking Sports Centre

Comprising all new facilities; a 6-lane 25m competition pool with spectator seating, a separate training pool, a 6 badminton court hall, fitness studio, dance studio, creche, and a public ‘street’ with café.
The wet and dry activity areas are accessed off a gently curving internal public pedestrian street which contains refreshment facilities with views over the swimming pools and which connects the Reigate Road frontage with the existing public car park behind.
The structure over the swimming pools utilizes glue laminated timber and timber structural decking supported off a concrete frame. The sports hall is steel framed.
