The John Smith Swimming Pool in Airdrie is set to reopen to the public in less than three weeks.
The facility will once again welcome visitors from April 6, following the completion of a significant refurbishment.
Brighter and modernised, the pool now boasts a new movable, freshly-grouted floor and retiled pool tank walls.
Visitors will also benefit from the new accessible pool stairs, a fully refurbished pool filtration system and upgrades to both the water treatment system and the building’s heating system.
Heather Liddle, active and creative communities manager, said: “We look forward to welcoming everyone back. The upgrades not only make the pool more accessible, but they also create a much more enjoyable environment for all our visitors.”

Cosmetic improvements have also been carried out across public areas, refreshing the venue and enhancing comfort for all users.
New evening public swimming sessions will also start at the pool.
Before the temporary closure in December 2024, most evenings after 6.30pm were reserved exclusively for club use, however, the new timetable offers greater flexibility for families, casual swimmers and fitness enthusiasts, ensuring the pool is more accessible to the wider community.
Once reopened, the pool will operate Monday to Thursday from 11am until 9pm, on Fridays from 11am until 7pm, and on Saturdays and Sundays from 9am until 4pm.
Public access to the pool at weekends will continue until 1.30pm, after which club sessions begin.
The health suite and gym will remain fully available throughout opening hours.
