City Government of Hamburg South officially inks agreement for joint pool facility construction
In an exciting development for residents of both Harburg (a borough in Hamburg) and the municipality of Neu Wulmstorf (in Lower Saxony), an intermunicipal combination swimming pool project has been announced. This ambitious venture aims to provide a modern aquatic facility that will serve the needs of all age groups, from ambitious swimmers to families with children.
Project Details
The combination pool, as it is being called, will be a unique facility that can be used as an indoor pool in the cooler seasons and transformed into an outdoor pool during the summer months. The pool is intended to significantly improve the swimming facilities in the region, offering leisure, school, and sports swimming opportunities.
Typically, such pools include competitive swimming lanes, leisure pools, children's areas, and wellness facilities. However, specific features for this project should be confirmed from local sources.
Location
The pool is strategically located to serve both Harburg and Neu Wulmstorf, often planned near accessible transport routes and community centers. Precise addresses will be available through municipal announcements or project plans.
Construction Timeline
The project is currently in the planning phase, involving feasibility studies, community consultations, and design finalization, which typically spans 1-2 years before groundbreaking. The exact timeline for construction start and completion will be announced in due course, once permits and funding have been secured.
Collaboration and Financing
The financing of the pool will be done through suitable funding and a coordinated cost key between the city of Hamburg and the municipality of Neu Wulmstorf. The Free and Hanseatic City of Hamburg is also involved in the construction of the combination pool with Neu Wulmstorf.
Tobias Handtke, mayor of Neu Wulmstorf, and Sophie Fredenhagen, head of the district administration, have signed a letter of intent for the intermunicipal combination pool, emphasizing its importance for securing school and club swimming in their respective municipalities and providing a long-term perspective for regional leisure swimming with an outdoor pool offer.
Sustainability Focus
The focus of the pool's construction and operation is on sustainability and resource efficiency. Bäderland GmbH has been proposed for the operation of the combination pool.
The pool will be built as soon as possible, but the project requires continued collaboration with all parties involved for its successful completion. The pool will be located in Fischbeker Reethen, near the border with Neu Wulmstorf, and will be open to all residents of the region, not just those in the Harburg district or Neu Wulmstorf.
