Although the project is in its early stages we have been working well with Clarkson Alliance to progress the scheme.  It has been an integral part of the project to balance the different stakeholder interests. The extensive plans for Bath Leisure Centre are an excellent development that will provide a diverse mix of activities. It will also transform the centre into a flagship leisure destination.  We have received detailed and clear cost management advice from Clarkson Alliance that will enable us to deliver an affordable project that is good value to the community.
