Former Mildenhall Swimming Pool set for demolition
Councillors say the site has become a target for anti-social behaviour
A former swimming pool in Mildenhall is going to demolished to make way for an expansion of the town's memorial gardens and new electric vehicle charging points.
The 1970s era pool on Recreation Way has been unused since the opening of a brand new pool at the Mildenhall Hub.
West Suffolk Council has now submitted plans to knock it down as the building has issues with anti social behaviour.
Two electric vehicle charging points will be installed on the site, while a nearby path will be widened to help keep pedestrians safe.
Cllr Sarah Broughton said: “Now that the Mildenhall Hub is open and doing so well we can make interim plans to demolish the old site and improve the area.
"Not only investing with the community in the memorial garden but as part of our aim to be carbon neutral by 2030 installing electric vehicle rapid charging points to help current and future generations.”
