With piling now complete on the Fermanagh Lakeland Forum Redevelopment in Enniskillen, main contractor John Graham Construction is moving ton to the next stage of below ground works, including drainage and foundation installation.
Outside the footprint of the building, progress also continues in the area of the new car park and access road, with below ground works ongoing.
The £70m project, supported by £20m of UK government funding, will see the development of a leisure, health and wellbeing centre overlooking the River Erne.
When complete in 2028, the new centre will have swimming pools, a gym and fitness suite, community wellbeing spaces, a sensory room, soft play, café and a range of outdoor facilities including a destination play park, pump track, 3G pitch, active waterfront and walking and cycling trails.
It will also become Northern Ireland’s first Passivhaus certified leisure centre.
Graham project manager William Gott said: “Completing the piling works marks an important milestone for this landmark project. Our team and partners have worked incredibly hard to reach this stage, and we’re pleased to see strong progress on site. We look forward to moving into the next phase and continuing to help deliver a modern, energy-efficient leisure facility for the local community.”
